Do you or someone you care about need support in managing difficult emotions? Perhaps trauma is driving addiction or other unwanted behaviors and it would be helpful to develop a plan and get the tools for improvement? Modern life has left us disconnected and discouraged. If you would like some help navigating difficult emotions, past trauma or current life stressors then please consider reaching out, and we can determine together if I am the right person to help.

Balancing work, expectations, responsibilities...the list goes on, it's easy to feel disconnected from what's important to you when you're just trying to get through the day. Many who start therapy with me feel overwhelmed and burnt out. I help my clients work through anxiety and people pleasing to finally feel like themselves again. I support my clients in processing their emotions, untangling the past, and gaining insight to patterns to get to the root of the problem and create lasting change. Together we challenge those patterns that are no longer serving them while building new ones aligned with their values.

Are you a couple, individual or family in need of new coping skills? Through somatic, body-centered awareness, our work together can help you to explore and understand your sensations, emotions, thoughts and actions so that you can have more authentic experiences of connection, intimacy, and joy. I work with individuals, couples and families with the following issues: Anxiety, depression, grief, loss, and intimacy. In my practice, I prioritize play and pleasure over perfection and precision.

I am interested in treating people whose potential is hindered by negative concepts of themselves imprinted in childhood (through traumatic experiences or neglect of basic emotional needs) and who frequently suffer from symptoms like chronic depression, anxiety and low self-esteem. I am committed to helping these individuals attain a sense of self that brings them happiness and fulfillment. My basic perspective is that the human mind possesses the capacity to heal itself, if guided in the right way. I have explored various methods and approaches to helping the mind restore its basic wholeness.

I have been practicing as a psychotherapist for 30 years. My main area of focus is working with families and children. Initially in my career, I worked with children in residential treatment settings, who were struggling with a variety of emotional and behavioral issues. During the past 20 years I have worked primarily in the field of high conflict divorce. I deal with all aspects of divorce, including mediating custody agreements, comprehensive child custody evaluations, resolving co-parenting conflicts and helping children cope with the stress of parental conflict. I also work with families dealing with blended family issues.

The last couple of years have thrown a wrench in the life we once had. The coping skills that worked aren't helping as much. Our ability to socialize and engage in self-care as we knew it has come with some mental resistance or a twinge of anxiety. Now that we are learning to adjust to life during and after the pandemic, the stressful experiences can still feel overwhelming. Regardless of whether you are in crisis or dealing with a persistent concern, you're here because you are ready to feel better. I would like to help you with that.

Adjusting to parenthood is one of the most profound transitions you will have in your lifetime. It is a time when support is truly needed. Not only is motherhood physically exhausting at times; it can be emotionally draining as well. The highs and pure love are often coupled with lows and uncertainty. Unfortunately, moms often do not share experiences that are outside the happiness ideal. If you are experiencing both highs and lows or feelings of ambivalence, you are not alone. These feelings are not a reflection of who you are as a person or mother.

You’ve spent most of your life looking out for others—now you’re wondering who’s looking out for you. Even as a kid, you felt responsible for keeping your household running smoothly. Being resourceful and independent is a foundational part of who you are professionally and personally, but no one ever seems to reciprocate the same amount of consideration or support you give them. You’re burnt out and overwhelmed, and the people closest to you offer more stress than solace. Maybe you’re also dealing with memories from your past that you can’t seem to leave behind. Now, you just want to feel less stressed & more like yourself again.

Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Do you have negative thoughts about yourself that make you feel ashamed or question your worth? Do you wonder if life should feel somehow better? Happier? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long term issues for your mind and body. You don't have to suffer. I believe that people are inherently capable of achieving their inner most desires and naturally want to evolve and heal.
