If you feel stuck, confused, locked in the same "dance" in your thoughts, behavior, and relationships, I will help you with the untangling. We will work together to find patterns, solve problems, and develop resilience and self-awareness. I work with individuals, families, and couples, and particularly enjoy young children and adolescents. I am particularly interesting in working with Gifted children and their parents...doing assessments, determining strengths and weaknesses, and helping families with the special opportunities involved. I also specialize in Couples work, using techniques that are evidence based and effective. I provide private Gifted Testing and ADHD, Learning Differences, and Memory Screening evaluations.
I have been a Family Therapist, Couples Therapist and Individual and Child Psychologist for over 40 years, which gives me the freedom to enjoy what I do, say what I think, and feel comfortable using a mix of therapeutic techniques, all leavened with humor, and a sense of adventure.
The best approach is to have a session and see how we 'fit"....that decision will be entirely yours, and I urge you to "know what you know" about how you and a therapist work together. Therapy is an Art, as well as a Science, and a good 'match' is crucial!
