I see mostly adults (both in individual and couples therapy) and older adolescents.
I am a psychologist in the Tysons Corner area and have been seeing clients for 34 years. My goal is to create a therapy experience that feels respectul, supportive, safe and yet challenging. As a therapist I work in a number of ways. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, because I believe strongly in the power of words. One goal is to identify self-destructive thought patterns and to develop new empowering patterns. I also use insight therapy to release the hold of old perceptions and feelings which are no longer helpful and to consciously choose the life you want now.

Across the past 36 years I have enjoyed playing, therapeutically, with young children, examining the contradictions of adolescents, assisting in the actualization of young adult dreams, and working with couples.
Becoming a therapist came naturally to me.....from my parents. My Father imparted a genuine interest in people along with an engaging wit, and my Mother graced me with her patience, profound kindness and empathy for all living things. The balance of my preparation required planning: acquiring extensive professional experience and excellent clinical training that shaped me into the therapist that I currently am. It's my belief that the process of psychotherapy, done well, can be uplifting through many of the challenges, ordinary and extraordinary, that living can present.

We are convinced we have a problem. We're focused on it, worried about it, and it often feels like it defines us. These problems tend to show up or worsen during life and relationship transitions. Attending to what isn't working, as well as being intentional about addressing these problems, is necessary for change. Easily overlooked though, are the jewels - the opportunities hiding behind those problems. Psychotherapy provides a safe space for growth opportunities - offering compassion to those parts of ourselves we don't like or shame us, while allowing for the fluidity, flexibility and movement required for transformations.

I use the Imago Relationship model in working with couples.
The focus of my work, both as a psychotherapist and coach, has been on identifying and encouraging people's strengths in their work and relationships. The positive psychology movement today is much in vogue but I have been practicing this model my entire career. Focusing on strengths rather than pathology has been extremely effective in my work with adults, adolescents, and couples.
