I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults on a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, loss, relationships, and family dynamics. My goal is to help people find greater satisfaction in themselves, their relationships, and their work. I believe that the increased self-knowledge and understanding gained through the collaborative psychotherapeutic process relieves symptoms, helps to deepen the capacity for intimacy, and promotes the strength, confidence, and skills necessary to lead a personally meaningful and productive life.

I specialize in helping couples, families, and individuals improve the relationships in their lives. Working from a relational approach, I believe that no one person is responsible for the dynamic in a relationship, decreasing any sense of shame in therapy. I work with many couples seeking to improve trust and communication, navigating infidelity, seeking to build intimacy, or navigating co-parenting. I also work with many families with adult children who are seeking to improve their relationships. Additionally, many women come to me for support navigating fertility struggles, motherhood, and friendships.

Raising well adjusted children and keeping your marriage healthy and strong is more challenging than most people expect. In our fast moving and highly competitive environment, it can be extremely challenging to maintain healthy self esteem, strong connections and perspective. Sometimes we feel lost, disconnected and alone. When life hurts, it is possible to turn our conflicts into opportunities for connection. Allow me to help you identify and break the negative patterns that are threatening your relationships.

Each of us experiences illness and loss, and their associated grief, throughout our lives. Whether due to the death of a family member or friend, diagnosis of a serious illness, change in life or employment status, or challenging life transitions, loss occurs at many life stages and can take different forms. I work with individuals and couples to address these issues, using therapeutic approaches based on attachment, narrative, cognitive behavior, and emotionally focused theories.

Life's challenges are many and COVID 19 has created a monumental shift in how we live and how we think about what it means to be human. It has put a different perspective on existing challenges while at the same time creating new ones. Facing such challenges in a supportive relationship can make a difference during these times of heightened anxiety. This type of self-examination takes courage and trust, and I feel privileged when asked to accompany someone on their journey. The success of this type of work lies in the relationship itself.

Parenting doesn't come with an instruction manual. Certainly if your child struggles emotionally, socially or academically, parenting can be even more challenging. You might be thinking your child will not be able to go away to college or live independently. Your worry and heartache may be affecting your relationship with your spouse, your bond with your children and your enjoyment of your life. I have spent the last 20 years helping parents like you to understand your child, to have a closer relationship with your spouse and children, and to alleviate your worries and pain.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
