The quality of relationships is at the heart of my work. Whether you are going through a separation or divorce, loss, doubts about a new love interest, parenting or step-parenting issues, pain of an affair, an upsetting move, or a life-stage transition, I can help you move through and beyond the pain or challenges of your situation. I will listen deeply, ask meaningful questions, help make sense of what you are going through, and share both tears and laughter along the way - no matter what the pain, disappointment, confusion or anger you may experience.
Learn to make meaningful connections between thoughts, feelings and actions, find out how to break only those chains between past and present that hold you back, and trust yourself to move in the direction you want. New understandings and possibilities will help point the way and breakthroughs are a bonus along your road.
I'm a member of the Board of Directors of the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy in NYC, supervisor and faculty member of the Family and Couples Treatment Service (ICP), founder of the Daughter-Mother Project - helping women strengthen or heal adult daughter-mother relationships. I am on a journey with my clients as they find new ways of being.
