Therapy works, and people can change. Living in a world that is highly relational, we often find that our toughest psychological problems are rooted in systemic relationship issues. I work with individuals and couples who are interested in developing healthier connections with themselves and with others. In order to make healthy relationships with others possible, one must foster a healthy relationship with oneself. In developing psychological health in ourselves, we become better able to interact with others in a way that does not cause us deep pain and ongoing frustration.

My name is Ali. For the past fifteen years, I have been in practice as a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. As a therapist, I am deeply curious and inquisitive. I am direct when I need to be. I believe that therapy is about making meaningful contact and connection with another individual. Connection requires warmth, kindness and humility, and I work hard to bring these qualities to my practice. Through my work, I’ve found that a bond develops between patient and therapist. Overtime, this bond has unique and mysterious healing powers. That’s the result I’m working to achieve.

Let's be real - life often throws the hardest curveballs, which leave us feeling damaged, lost, and fearful of how to recover or return to "how things used to be." Too often, we feel unheard and alone in our darkness. What do you do when you feel so anxious and high-strung that it’s hard to breathe? Who will understand when you don’t have the energy to get out of bed, or you avoid certain places because it reminds you of a terrible memory?

Life's journey is filled with various challenges that can lead to stress, depression, anxiety, or trauma. These experiences can then lead to feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and less of oneself as well as other issues such as relationship difficulties. While it can be difficult to confront these issues, I believe in the remarkable resilience within each of us, that allows us to grow and overcome in the midst of challenges. I'm here to offer you a safe space where you can freely explore your stories and learn new ways to cope and heal. I value and deeply respect who you are and the wisdom and strengths that already exist within you.

I specialize in trauma, anxiety, women's issues, and teens. I also offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) as a way to help clients heal from difficult life experiences. As a therapist, my goal is to provide a home for each person to be authentically who they are, without judgment. I provide support during the hard times, ask tough questions when necessary, and work with you to find practical solutions to your challenges. I am equally adept at comforting you in your tearful moments and providing some much needed laughter.

(Zoom Video sessions) My ideal client: A creative, motivated, and intelligent professional with an obsession, usually drugs/alcohol and/or sex. A higher percentage of creative people struggle with addiction, because they just don't know when to quit! Creatives frequently have low self-esteem, often despite proven success. Using cognitive (CBT) techniques and psychodynamic methods (how events from the past affect the present) I use a pragmatic, individualized approach. I include solution-focused and music/art therapy to help the client gain insight and put the insight to work to achieve realistic goals.

My style of therapy is one that is both collaborative and supportive. I believe that all individuals have the capacity to make lasting changes in their lives. I help the individual tap into those abilities by challenging the conscious and unconscious barriers that can impede growth and change. Using psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral techniques, I provide a safe, nurturing environment where individuals can explore their challenges and unearth their full potential.

I specialize in couples, relationships and life transitions of all kinds. I'm mature. Been there myself and can light the way. I have a deep therapeutic toolkit tailored to your unique situation. I don't live in an ivory tower of psychoanalytic theory and am told I'm easy to talk to and compassionate. I believe in personal growth and walk the talk. I returned to grad school at age 60 to follow my lifelong dream to be a therapist and provide a welcoming environment where you as an individual or a couple can experience self-determination. I enjoy working with people of all ages, ethnicities and sexual orientations.

Hi, thank you for visiting. After 20 years as a therapist, I have found that people need a combination of support, insight, and challenging interactions to help them move past obstacles they are facing. I work with individuals on the most intimate aspects of their lives, including their sexuality, relationships, and life and death issues. My style is interactive and relational, and employs uncovering family of origin dynamics, but also more practical, EMDR and Brainspotting methods to help make changes more quickly. My specialty is in all aspects of loss and grief, addictions, eating disorders, relationships, trauma and cancer.

I believe that a life well examined is a life worth living. It's important to truly know yourself, and what your strengths and limitations are. My focus in treatment is based upon your goals for therapy, and what outcome you are hoping for. I have done much work within the LGBTQ + Community, and with couples across all ethnicities and orientations. Couples bring their own personal histories and experiences into the their relationships forming "unconscious contracts" with each other. I help them understand what those are between each other, in order to help them have a better understanding of why they chose each other.
