It is my goal to extend compassion, patience, kindness, and encouragement in a nonjudgmental way to build a trusting professional relationship that welcomes honest expression from all clients.
Life can be very hard, and we could all benefit from some help along the way. Ironically, it is navigating the most difficult parts of the journey that often invests life with the deepest sense of meaning and direction. Try as we may, we cannot do this well alone. It is my passion to partner with adolescents, adults, and couples (see specialties below) to foster a deeper understanding of challenging issues, resolve conflict, restore connection, clarify goals, create healthy life rhythms, and move towards change. Wherever you are on your journey, it would be my privilege to meet you there and walk alongside you in a helpful way.

I work with adults, couples and families.
I am a licensed, clinical psychologist with over thirty years of experience. I was in private practice in Beverly Hills, CA for over twenty-five years. I am licensed in California and in South Carolina, where I currently reside. My orientation is primarily psychodynamic and informed by contemporary psychoanalytic theory. I combine this depth approach to psychotherapy with a strong background and belief in cognitive-behavioral interventions. I am dedicated to providing the highest quality of professional care, with compassion, acceptance and sensitivity. I tailor my treatment approach to the needs of the individual.

Let me partner with you in your journey to find peace, tranquility, and relief.
As rewarding as you find your role as a helping-professional to be, pouring yourself out to others has left you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed and lonely. Over time, the responsibility of caring for others has led to an endless cycle of stress, survival and defeat. Perhaps you’ve noticed burnout and fatigue spilling into your personal life. During your limited free time, you notice plummeting energy levels, crippling anxiety and relationships that are starting to deteriorate. You feel stretched thin, living for the weekend. Deep down, you long for this to change.

I work with couples from all backgrounds, but specialize in working with queer couples.
Does your relationship feel full of misunderstandings and conflict? Are you frustrated and longing for more connection? It can feel miserable – that same awful conflict over and over and over again leaves you feeling helpless. But what if these very conflicts hold the key to deeper understanding and connection? My practice is all about connection — uncovering a deeper connection to yourself and your happiness and/or cultivating a deeper, trusting connection with your partner. If this sounds like something you’re looking for, I’d love to help you find it.

I specialize in helping adolescents, adults, and couples overcome stress and anxiety, sadness and depression, and relationship difficulties through a specialized approach to counseling - psychodynamic therapy.
In all of my years of experience in working with people, I have found that what people most want and need is a safe space to be heard, supported, and understood. It's within that place that people begin to heal. My passion is in helping people find healing at the root cause of their pain. We all have painful experiences. When we can address those areas of pain (which often get reinforced time and time again), we can actually overcome the things that make us feel stuck.

You can reestablish trust and a healthy loving relationship.
I can't believe this is happening! Sound familiar? Did you catch your spouse cheating on you? Betrayal, fear, shame, anger, rage, sadness, hyper-vigilance and a host of other intense emotions are consuming your life. Maybe your spouse hasn't cheated on you. Maybe you have drifted apart and you feel like roommates. Is your spouse distracted, spending hours on the computer or clinging to the phone? Do you feel emotionally, physically and spiritually cut off? Have you caught your spouse watching porn? Often times, porn is a major contributor in intimacy disorders and sex addictions. Don't give up, there is hope!

I have many years experience working with adults and children suffering from depression, anxiety, OCD, anger issues, trauma, and abuse. I have also worked in the field of drug and alcohol addiction. After my graduate studies, my primary focus and training was working with children suffering from ADHD, ODD, depression, and anxiety. I used behavioral management coupled with parenting strategies to improve the overall parent/child relationship. I gained incredible knowledge and insight regarding chronic pain as well as grief and loss while working with the elderly population through home health care and hospice.

I specialize in treating individuals who are seeking relief from anxiety, trauma, and relationship difficulties.
Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed or wondering why relationships tend to feel so difficult? Do you find that you beat yourself up with self-criticism? Life can be challenging, and we may feel that we have to just keep going and suck it up, which may lead us to feel lonelier and more overwhelmed. In my experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor, and previous experience as a yoga instructor I have found that the combination of mindfulness, self-awareness, and processing trauma can be quite powerful in finding our authentic selves.
