I additionally specialize in relationship distress and work with couples who may be feeling lost or disconnected in their relationship and are looking to find their way back to one another.
As humans, we are incredibly resilient; able to bear seemingly unbearable hurt, pain, and wounding experiences. However, our pain is not meant to be held alone- as we need a present and safe other to help us hold all that has been endured. I believe that therapy takes place within this precise context where your experiences and feelings have a dwelling place to be explored, processed, and held in the therapeutic relationship. It is with the intention of exploration, rather than expectation, that we work together- where experiences that may have not had a home before, can be tended to in newfound and meaningful ways.

The decision to start therapy is a very personal and courageous one. Many of the people I see are struggling with feelings related to anxiety, depression, and/or relationship conflict. As a psychologist and psychoanalyst, I have been helping people understand themselves and make meaningful life changes for over 20 years. In my work with individuals and couples, I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where we work together to understand the patterns that keep you stuck and identify how you can make positive changes in the here and now.

I use interpersonal, psychodynamic, cognitive and strength base therapy as I believe that the relationship tends to be more important than "technique" and focus on where you are and what you need.
I understand the challenges, hopes, and fears you face in the process of seeking therapy. Our goal is to create together a safe atmosphere that will enable you to explore. At the same time, I look at underlying issues you may have and confront them in an empathic manner. In addition to private practice, I teach, write, and present locally and nationally. While I work with both women and men from many walks of life, my specialties include men's issues, fatherhood, sports psychology, working with executives, and diversity training.

The goal to good therapy work is in creating a safe therapeutic relationship of deep listening and empathy. Empathy is a strange and powerful thing. There is no script. There is no right way or wrong way to do it. It's simply deep listening, holding space, withholding judgement, emotionally connecting, and communicating that incredibly healing message of, "You are not not alone." Take some time to heal. Give me a call and let's begin to re-write your story.

For the past ten years, I have worked as a therapist and clinical director at the residential level of care helping individuals who suffer from eating disorders and related issues like anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, substance use, relationship issues, and a lack of self-knowing/self-worth.
As human beings, we are all on the same journey of self-understanding, self-compassion, self-growth and the belief in our self-worth. What I have seen happen time after time is that people get stuck in the lack of self-compassion and then struggle to move forward from there. This leaves them with more insecurities, anxiety, and depression that drive other unhealthy behavior use. People so often feel disconnected from their inner strengths. My goal is to help clients reconnect with their internal resources so they can move past the doubt and judgement and take that next step towards self-compassion and a better sense of self-worth.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
