About Us
read moreHalf of my practice has been helping couples for most of my practice life. My specialty in working with couples includes helping with concerns related to parenting and your relationships with your children. I work with families to strengthen the bonds between children and parents, to strengthen the parenting alliance, to help the family build flexibility and responsiveness to its changing needs over time. My commitment as a couple and family therapist is to bring everything I have learned and everything of myself to help you find your best selves in and through your relationship to each other.
Individual Therapy
read moreIn individual therapy the relationship we develop becomes a context in which you can think and feel about your relationship to yourself and to others. I bring a practice life of commitment, creativity, genuine engagement, and also the flaws of my own humanity. Ithinkwith youabout your experience from a psychodynamic, contemporary, relational psychoanalytic frame of reference, but I have been strongly influenced by the experiential, somatic, expressive and narrative therapies and take an active approach, doing whatever is practical, to help you connect with your deepest and most true self.
