>TELEHEALTH/VIDEO AND IN-PERSON SESSIONS AVAILABLE < Though change is a fundamental part of being human, it can sometimes be a difficult process. Anxiety, depression, stressful mental and physical conditions, and unhealthy behavior patterns that often accompany change can be eased with therapy. Choosing a psychotherapist is an important step, and a good fit between therapist and client is a part of that process. I offer you a safe and interactive atmosphere where you will be heard, supported and given feedback.

With over 30 years of experience working with children and families, I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and behavioral disorders within the context of family therapy. In addition, my advocacy for children has informed my work as a reunification therapist for parents who have found themselves victims of parental alienation or estrangement from their children. Every child deserves to have a loving relationship with both parents whenever possible. I also specialize in ADHD diagnosis and treatment, including interfacing with both public schools and colleges. Treatment includes executive functioning skills development.

I believe therapy can be effective by exploring past experiences and relationships and examining how they are impacting current life stresses. A willingness to change is also critical.

Life...it is filled with ups and downs, joys and pains, satisfaction and disappointments. Sometimes life can shift out of balance and we may notice feeling “off," or lose sight of our purpose and meaning. Whether dealing with everyday stressors or significant life transitions, we may feel frustrated and overwhelmed.

Therapy as a collaborative process in which we work together to understand the problems that have brought you in, and work towards mutually established goals. Psychotherapy involves verbalizing your thoughts and feelings, exploring relational and behavioral patterns, and learning how past experiences may impact you now. Through this process we strive to gain greater awareness of how both conscious and unconscious processes play out in your emotional and relational life. Ultimately, therapy can help individuals come to better understand themselves and enjoy greater choice in their lives.

You, like so many of us who have survived sexual abuse, often find yourself struggling to create and keep healthy relationships. More often than not, you have a hard time standing up for yourself. You have worked so hard to make yourself feel safe, confident, steady, and worthy. You seek peace at each sunset and hope at each sunrise. Still, there are times when the nightmares haunt you in your sleep, and the flashbacks freeze you when awake. You seek escape from the trauma of your past, but rarely find long-lasting relief. You want to emerge from the turmoil of your past and find your Paths to Healing.

Thinking of therapy? Ask us for the first session free. IPG paved the way for other Queer-affirmative therapists. Founded in 1983 specifically to serve the LGBTQ+ community, back when most practitioners viewed it as a mental illness, we are still trailblazers, working with trans/GNC folks, bi/pansexuals, the kink/BDSM community, consensual nonmonogamists, and others who make up the "Q+" in LGBTQ+. You may not want therapy because you are gay, but you likely want a therapist who is not only affirming but knowledgeable. We understand the special issues of LGBTQ+ individuals, couples, and families, and we provide sex therapy as well.

Through my experience and training I have gained a strong understanding of diverse identities, including gender and sexual identities, as well as sexual and relational issues. Therefore, I am able to provide gender therapy for transgender and gender-expansive individuals from a non-pathological perspective.
