I am trained in Family Therapy and although not always the case, therapy often moves faster when you are willing to include other family members as a part of therapy at some point. It helps me understand you in the broader context of the people that are important to you or have influence in your life. I have been married for 34 years and have three adult children so my personal experience often informs me, along with my training and the expertise I have gathered being a part of The Family Therapy Institute.

Family Therapy believes that the individual is best served by looking at the family of origin as well as asking members of the current family to join you when appropriate. Additionally, I am trained in EMDR, a therapy especially useful for Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome or traumatic events.

One of my passions is working with women's mid-life issues. Concerns around the empty nest, health, relationships, finding balance, purpose and spirituality are areas I address. I also enjoy working with families that have a member with a diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome.
