We also have experience working with children suffering from the impact of difficult or complex separations and divorce.
We are a group of mental health practitioners devoted to bringing the best practices in psychotherapy to children, adolescents, families, and couples. We work against the cultural grain of increasing isolation and emphasis on individual pathology in mental health treatment. Taking guidance from the growing body of research on interpersonal neurobiology, we address a wide range of personal and interpersonal problems through relationship-based therapies that tap the tremendous healing power of families.

My clinical interests include couples, life transitions, separation/divorce/co-parenting, adult child of divorce, blending families, premarital counseling, sand tray, Mindfulness-Based Play Family Therapy, and sex therapy.
I aspire to make the world, or at least our little microcosm, a more kind and loving place. I believe therapy can help us become better versions of ourselves, deepen connection with each other, and bring more kindness to our relationships. Our innate capacity to heal and grow, both within and in relation with others, is strengthened by the guidance of genuine human connection.

If you feel stuck, misunderstood, overwhelmed or not the best version of yourself hopefully we can get you on a path towards peace soon. I have both personal & clinical experience in grief, trauma, anxiety and depression. Transitions I help clients work through include; break up/divorce, medical issues, civilian life, parenthood, retirement, family changes, loss of loved one, career changes, abuse, or past traumas. I treat both clients who want quick results with goal directed therapy or collaborate with clients who are seeking a more long term in-depth relationship using a trauma informed lens.

Work with couples has focused on issues concerning relationship disenchantment, affairs, divorce, struggles over life decisions regarding careers, children, and change in general in a couple's life.
I work with individuals and couples to create positive changes in their lives. This includes those struggling in areas such as self-esteem, intimacy, addressing emotional needs, healing from past hurts/trauma, a history of neglect or abuse, or challenges regarding gender and sexuality. I work with couples, straight/lesbian/gay, who are working on their relationship, whether as a result of an affair, or realizing differences that keep them from being close. My research focuses on men and the effects of expectations on men’s lives. Pursuing therapy represents a longing to heal. My work is about supporting that process.

You were fine...and then life happened. Death, divorce, children, retirement, the relationship - whatever it was for you, it turned your world upside down. While you used to pride yourself in "having it together," now you feel lost, depressed, overwhelmed and helpless. You are angry at yourself and others because you can't "move on." All you want to do is feel like "YOU" again, but you secretly wonder if that's even possible. It is possible. I can help you cope with the painful parts of life and feel in control again.

The primary focus of my work is with adults, adolescents, and their families as they work to navigate difficult stages in their lives. Much of my professional work is with adolescents and their families. In my work with teens, I employ a mix of humor, authenticity, and curiosity about their struggles. From a stance of openness and compassion, I work to help teens explore their individual difficulties, confront potentially self sabotaging patterns, and develop coping strategies that are unique to their needs. I have helped many teens move beyond their pain and find healthier, freer, more fulfilling lives.

Perhaps you’ve been feeling overwhelmed with sadness, worry, or grief? Maybe you need to break generational patterns? Or you and your partner can’t seem to connect anymore and are having the same argument over and over? For 24 years, I’ve worked with individuals and couples to help them heal wounds and find joy lost due to trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and difficulties in relationships-including infidelity. When we work together, you can gain a sense of agency, increase your emotional awareness, develop skills to find stability when you feel overwhelmed, improve communication in relationships, and honor your authentic self.

I believe in experiential therapies like EMDR, because they help the client feel a sense of progress very quickly. I want to help clients know that they can feel stronger and more successful. I am interested in the role of voice, the ways that clients have been kept from telling their truths and the ways in which they can inhabit their truths in the present and in the future. Therapy is difficult work for the client-I want the people who come to me to feel safe as they take on this work.

Each of us faces unique challenges as we go through life. Whether these challenges take the form of problems with work or relationships, with anxiety or depression, or simply with dissatisfaction over the current state of our lives, we all want to make improvements in how we experience our lives. We may also find that life presents certain demands of us at different stages requiring us to stretch beyond our accustomed habits and ways of being. Often our challenges can seem daunting, at times insurmountable, yet with the right support and perspective, we can be inspired to make positive changes.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
