What often compels people to seek therapy is some form of felt loss. It could be as transparent as an unsatisfying relationship or as subtle as lowered self-esteem. It could be a sense that something is missing and an uncertainty as to what that may be. One of the most important relationships in life is the one we foster with ourselves. And frequently, it is the one most ignored. I strive to help people see and understand themselves more clearly as I believe self awareness is an indispensable bridge to healthy change.

Possible issues could be a recent crisis or loss (death, divorce, job termination) or desire to improve a relationship or habit.
Hello; thanks for viewing my profile. Everyone has an interesting story to tell of how they got to where they are now. Therapy can help change the plot and perhaps develop new chapters. I have been a psychologist for over 30 years- initially in a medical setting and then in private practice. I have expertise working with people with medical conditions as well as with depression and anxiety. I treat couples and individuals ranging from 18 years through the lifespan.

You may be considering psychotherapy for the first time or searching for a better "fit". The quality of the relationship is as significant to healing as the approach or expertise. Whether your goal is to solve specific problems or discover deeper self-knowledge, I draw on many years of experience to guide this process. My down-to-earth, non-judgmental approach is conducive to building the trust and confidence essential to the therapeutic relationship.

Whether it's something from the past, in the present, or a potential future that is giving us pause, there are many times in our lives that we may feel we can benefit from some additional support. As a provider, my background is primarily in working with those impacted by Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, and relationship traumas. I also have a passion for working with queer and trans (LGBTQIA+) adults. The uniting thread through my passion for the work has been helping people uplift and embrace their true selves.

I then help them identify new life and relationship goals based on this rekindled awareness.
I specialize in helping individuals and couples manage issues that often accompany separation and divorce using the principles in my book: “How to Divorce Cooperatively". In addition to divorce issues, I help clients build and improve relationship skills such as communication, decision making, boundaries, emotional regulation, and conflict resolution. My work with clients often focuses on life transitions such as cohabitation, parenthood/co-parenting, empty nesting, career change, substance use recovery, grief, and loss. I utilize an integrated approach drawing predominately from humanistic and family systems schools of thought.

Entering into a safe theraputic relationship where there is no judgement or critcism, where you know that the time is all about you with the focus on your life and changes you need to make, is the first step to acheiving goals and living the best life possible.
Feeling overwhelmed? Things don't make sense and you've lost perspective? Sometimes it is a big reason - such as divorce, medical issues, chronic pain, weight management, financial stress or job loss. Or sometimes we just realize that we are not where we want to be in our life and not sure how we got there or how to get back. This can result in anxiety, depressed mood and sadness. It's time to start putting the pieces together - changing bad behaviors and replacing them with healthy ones, being accountable and responsible for our own lives.

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.
