I specialize in relationship distress (families, couples and parent-teen), trauma resolution, anxiety, depression and self-harming behaviors.
Are your relationships causing distress? Feeling overwhelmingly anxious or depressed? Repeating old tired patterns? These problems, while distressing, are signs that you are ready to make changes - letting go of what is not working and learning new ways of being. As an experienced psychotherapist, I offer you and your family confidential, creative and effective support to make these important and compelling life changes. In our work together, you gain the tools and confidence to navigate and overcome life's problems - turning obstacles into opportunities for change, growth and transformation.

For 30 years, I have helped clients overcome depression, anxiety, anger, stress, relationship conflicts, ADD, addictions, workplace, and motivation problems. I am a very interactive, direct (often with humor) and solution focused therapist who challenges clients to instigate the change they want to see. I help clients develop skills in approaching discomfort rather than avoiding. Using cognitive strategies, I can help you change negative thinking to positive. I help clients express their healthiest emotions rather than using emotions to defend or manipulate. I encourage exercise and mindfulness for optimal living.

Are you going through a difficult transition or loss in your life? We will use elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Based Interventions and Interpersonal Therapy to actively create the change and growth you are seeking.

I specialize in helping people overcome trauma, depression, anxiety, challenging relationship issues including sexuality, loss/grief, and deepen into their personal growth & joy.
We are always, already in relationship. Whether it is a relationship to another person, place, or oneself, we are in some way connected to and affected by our surroundings. It's in relationship that our deepest hurt can take place, and it's also in relationship that our most profound and liberating healing can occur. Let's utilize relationship- yours and mine, other relationships in your life (partner or friends), and the greater context of society, and nature to illuminate your unconscious patterning, and support you in finding new, intentional ways of being that bring you greater joy, clarity, and wellbeing.

My approach creates a safe, trusting relationship to support client's to experience aspects (parts) of their inner life that have been hidden.
I work with clients who are experiencing problems that are typically long-standing, repetitive, and significantly interfering with their life. Some examples would include unsatisfying or unstable relationships, history of anxiety and depression, feeling they can't "be seen" or get their needs met, and living with emotional pain, chronic shame and disconnection from self. Client's often want to explore the impact of their early life and development, or focus on increasing their self-esteem and wellbeing, and many want to gain a deeper understanding of their patterns. Psychotherapy is an effective way to heal and live courageously.

I am an Ackerman trained family therapist and graduate of NYU, practicing individual, family, couple, and support group psychotherapy. I specialize in relationships, intimacy, illness, trauma, and loss. My therapeutic work w/clients focuses on exploring how family, religion, and cultures of origin influence how one learns to adapt in the world, both independently and when exploring new areas of intimacy and connection. I believe in the importance of my own self-awareness, acknowledging that the work in understanding one’s relationship to privilege regarding ethnicity, color, and other intersectional identities are a lifelong study.

Felt connection is something I find to be critical in the therapeutic relationship and what I can promise.
Are you ever sitting in doubt about your ability to handle life’s demands while simultaneously being able to trust that “it’ll be all OK?” Whether it’s career despair, too many financial demands, a relationship, a breakup, a diagnosis, parenting, your family’s wellbeing, doing life “right” by societal standard, where you’re meant to live, the fate of your current relationship, etc- the uncertainty of what’s ahead is often all consuming. The gap of what is and what will be is often perceived as very scary terrain. Proper navigation requires skill for internal resilience to take hold amongst the chaos of our angst.

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.
