You want to reignite connection and passion with your partner. The distance between you seems vast and has been there for so long that you don't know how to bridge it anymore.

Every positive therapy depends on a good personal connection. I begin by trying to get a clear sense of how your life feels to you, and what you want to change. Regardless of the issue that brings you to therapy, I am committed to discovering together the solutions that work best for you. I have been privileged to witness this process throughout my practice, and I have come to believe that an understanding and connected treatment relationship is a powerful tool for change, growth, and enlivenment. My approach is warm, thoughtful, and engaged. I share my thoughts clearly and openly, and offer tools that I think will be useful, but also recognize that you are the best judge to choose what works for you. I am committed to helping you be more effective and feel in control of the direction your life is taking.

Is your life in balance? I believe that by the time many people come to therapy they have tried a lot of different things to feel better and change what is creating discomfort and pain and yet life is still out of balance. Many years of experience have taught me that the combination of psychological insight and behavioral change are necessary to make a difference in the two most important areas of life: relationships and work. Without change we "understand" but repeat the same self-defeating behaviors over and over with very little sense of well-being. Family and friends can give support but a psychotherapist is trained, neutral and can say things to you which are hard to hear from others and help you explore aspects of your life which are uncomfortable for you. It would be great if it were really true that"I can say anything to my..fill in the blank.."but realistically often we can't and the broken part of life stays broken. I can help you repair the breaks by using what you know about yourself, what you learn and collaborating on solutions. I understand people holistically-how environmental, social, spiritual, physical, gender and cultural influences shape us. My training provides me with a unique "person in situation" orientation which combines understanding of a person's psychological processes with the world around them. You can have a more balanced and satisfying life.

You deserve to be met with presence, honesty and care. Many people come to therapy carrying pain they have learned to hide, questions they would like to explore or a quiet sense that something in their life needs to shift. Whatever brings you here, we can begin with that. My therapeutic approach integrates an understanding of how past experiences, internal parts such as protectors or inner critics, the mind-body connection, and relational dynamics (including early attachment) can all influence how we relate to ourselves and others today. Offering an opening to explore anxiety, work stress, life changes, and other dynamics. I listen closely, ask thoughtful questions and help you notice what might be happening beneath the surface. We can look at patterns together that may feel hard to break, emotions that are hard to name and parts of you that may have been pushed aside. I bring a warm and patient presence to our work, holding space for the natural rhythm of healing, understanding that growth unfolds at its own pace and often calls for compassionate patience. I also recognize that each person’s journey is unique. Whether you prefer to talk through challenges, try new ways of coping or explore deeper emotional experiences, I adapt to what feels most helpful for you. This process takes time and can also creates room for relief, for clarity and for a different kind of relationship with yourself. If you are looking for a space that allows you to be real, to be uncertain and to grow at your own pace, I invite you to reach out.

Life can feel overwhelming when you're weighed down by unresolved trauma, relentless anxiety, creative blocks or the deep pain of grief. You might find yourself stuck in ruminations that keep you from moving forward—whether you're a high achiever or someone supported by your family just launching - mental health issues hold us back from reaching our full potential. Navigating a painful breakup, feeling intense insecurity or struggling with people-pleasing, humans can find themselves in patterns they can’t seem to break. But there’s hope. Together, we can work through these heavy emotions, helping you find relief and renewed purpose.

Life can be full of ups and downs. How we approach challenges defines who we are and who we want to be. The first step is to reach out. I am a licensed Psychologist with more than 20yrs. experience in assessments, evaluations, and psychotherapy. I help people who seek relief from dealing with life's challenges (e.g., anxiety, depression, stress, stress management, relationship difficulties, etc.) and life transitions. I also specialize in Medical Psychology and work with people who are struggling with health issues(e.g., adjusting to a medical diagnosis, managing an illness, chronic pain, coping with a loved one who suffers with an illness) and folks who are caregivers of people with health issues. Please contact me for a free phone consultation to discuss your specific situation and goals.

I help people achieve greater insight into their lives. I cultivate an environment in which we can find more options that can lead to new and diverse patterns and experiences. In my approach to helping, we work together to identify old coping mechanisms which are no longer serving you well. I strive to establish a space in which we can safely evaluate which dynamics are working for you in your life, and how to let go of old defenses and patterns, which might be harmful.
