We all desire happiness, fulfillment and peace - but how do we get there when we feel like we have so little control over our situations? Healthy individuals and relationships are the cornerstone of our well-being, however, at times we all feel like we have lost control or are overwhelmed by challenges and changes in our lives. As a Marriage and Family Therapist I will help you recognize and change ineffective, repetitive or destructive patterns of thoughts, communication and behavior in a safe, supervised atmosphere. Together we will focus on strengths, healthy interactions, goals and solutions to achieve positive changes in your life and relationships.

Emotions can be overwhelming, in order to become more productive and positive in life we need to manage them. Therapy allows my clients to feel in control of their destiny, to regain vitality and a sense of purpose. As they work through difficult experiences, they will obtain a more balanced life with an attitude of "self-acceptance" and "flexibility". They feel revitalized and strengthened to face life's difficult situations. I also work with couples and adolescents.My clients can use their bodies and minds in a more effective coordinated way by learning techniques of relaxation and mental focus.

People worry every day. Some worriers "worry all their lives." Excessive, non-productive WORRY may lead to symptoms seen in generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), irritability and depression. There may be misguided behavioral strategies or unresolved experiences that prevent more productive use of worry and subsequent self-esteem enhancement. I will help you understand your worrying behavior, learn about how to live with uncertainty and consider strategies and new behaviors you have not yet thought about. I pride myself in my ability to develop good working relationships with my clients, a crucial part of therapy.

My training as an Art Therapist, Social Worker, Psychoanalyst and Life Coach provide me with a unique combination of skills and resources which I use in the service of helping my clients find clarity in life, and achieve their goals. Sometimes we feel angry, sad, frustrated, anxious and unfulfilled without really knowing why. The combination of knowing and understanding our past, in the context of our present life, provides us with an invaluable amount of information we can use to understand and change how we feel and what we do in our lives.

Difficulties with intimacy are prevalent. People are pessimistic and frightened of marriage. Levels of anxiety, depression, and "pushing away" defense mechanisms are increasing and we tend to seek the emotionally familiar. We fall in love based on our earliest experiences with bonding, or lack of it. Thus, if these feelings are based upon aberrations of bonding, we are constantly drawn to those who cannot bond & connect. If you continually repeat the same mistakes in your life you may be emotionally "stuck" due to these early feelings.
