My practice is comprised of individuals and families grappling with a range of issues from addiction to high conflict divorce and college transition difficulties. Many of my clients are navigating with the strain of divorce and are seeking to learn skills to co-parent young children despite high conflict with their ex-spouse. Others are parents devastated by the ravages of addiction on their child and, ultimately, their family. These clients are motivated, competent and capable, but are experiencing discomfort in their lives that requires empathic support and guidance.

Do you feel like nothing you say or do with your teenager is right? Are you worried about your child's safety, their behavior, and/or their future? Trying to effectively parent a struggling teenager can be incredibly challenging. Whether your teen is engaging in unsafe behaviors, won't go to school, or is constantly dysregulated, the pressure this puts on parents and siblings can be overwhelming. I help families/parents/individuals identify what their therapeutic goals are, what is getting in the way of meeting those goals, and what needs to happen to create a safer, healthier family that can move forward together.

I am a psychologist with over 15 years of experience helping adults of all ages experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, academic and career stress, and relationship challenges associated with marriage and partnership, parenting, family, and friendships. I work collaboratively with clients to clarify specific treatment goals and apply research-supported strategies to achieve them. My therapeutic style integrates warm support and gentle challenge, compassion and humor, practicality and hope. I believe successful treatment both reduces distressing symptoms and enhances joy, connection, and sense of purpose in daily life.

I work with clients who are struggling with life stressors that have become too difficult to navigate on their own, such as: unsatisfying personal or family relationships; anxiety; marital conflict, infidelity, separation and divorce; parenting stress; health related issues; caregiver stress; grief and loss; and job dissatisfaction or career transitions.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults around issues of grief and loss (death and non-death: divorce, relationship changes, life transitions, adoption, chronic illness) and anxiety. Through my many years working with bereaved children and their caregivers, I have learned that we all grieve our losses in our own way and in our own time. In an attempt to create a refuge from the cultural pressure “to move on,” I strive to offer a welcoming, nurturing, and safe space for you to grieve your loss, to find hope and connection, and to discover ways to heal and to grow.

I work with adults, college and graduate students, adolescents, families, couples, social workers and groups. I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey.

Finding the right therapist with whom to create a strong therapeutic alliance is paramount to success. I work with my clients in a framework of compassion, honesty, trust and safety. Together we will identify your goals, empower you to change what you can in your life and to learn acceptance, not passive resignation, for that which you can not change. Carl Jung put it best, “I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become”.

I am sorry to say I am not currently accepting individual clients. I am a high energy, direct, relational therapist. I work hard to help clients articulate their goals and then take measurable steps towards achieving them. If you are looking for a therapist who is lively and a "straight shooter", I might be a good fit for you. In addition, I work well with motivated individuals, who may be struggling, but are also interested in creating change in their life.

My particular therapeutic approach honors your individuality and desire for changing important aspects of your life. I believe that a spirit of collaboration is the best way to work together. In my work, I have found we all have a basic capacity for change and transformation, and that we are all "wired" for growth and healing. Psychotherapy offers a unique opportunity to tap into our own innate and deep desire to be known, seen, and recognized as we strive to come into contact with parts of ourselves that may seem frozen, stuck, or unavailable.

We all reach moments in our lives when coping on our own is not sufficient. Therapy can be uniquely helpful when struggling with aspects of self care, relationships and/or negotiating external circumstances including with our political world. A confidential space dedicated to untangling your emotions and the origins of persistent struggles can be life changing. I specialize in grief, trauma, depression and anxiety, dysfunctional family systems as well as issues related to immigration, assimilation and oppression. I also work with couples stuck in patterns and communication blocks.

My clients often seek therapy when they are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or burnt out. They are amidst a transition — starting college, beginning or ending a relationship, changing jobs, or becoming a parent. Others are feeling stuck and need support navigating friendships, partnerships, family dynamics, and careers. I believe that effective therapy happens when the client and therapist have an authentic, trusting relationship, and the client is invested in their healing. There is no one size fits all approach to therapy, and I strive to create a space that meets your unique needs using curiosity, empathy, and humor.

I see adults of all ages, seeking help in dealing with issues such as depression and difficulties in relationships. My style is active, interactive, nonjudgmental, warm, and empathetic, with a sense of humor. Mood and relational problems are sometimes related to ways that people have reacted and adapted to past traumatic experiences, which may also become a focus of therapy.

NOT accepting new clients at this time. Our lives consist of welcome routines and happy memories, turning points and challenges. Sometimes it is painfully difficult. Perhaps you have experienced the loss of a dream or a loved one, or been unable to move past a traumatic event. Maybe life feels like a daily rut, void of meaning or joy. Even in the company of people who care about us we can feel alone, sad or overwhelmed. The good news is we can find connection, experience change and move through pain and struggle to a place of greater freedom and happiness.
