Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist
Feeling lonely, betrayed, frustrated, confused, stuck or any combination of these emotions impairs our ability to live the life we desire. Failed or unfulfilling relationships, unsuccessful or disappointing career situations, general dissatisfaction, apathy, crisis, trauma and death are among the many reasons to explore therapy.
Individual Therapy
I work closely with individuals to explore and understand personal inner dynamics by examining their unique experiences.
Couple Therapy
My specialized skills in Couples Counseling are designed not only to help my patients establish a healthy couple relationship.
Family Therapy
When treating individuals, couples and families in therapy, I use what is known as the “family systems theory”.
Group Therapy
I work with groups having special interests, needs, and problems utilizing the family systems approach to therapy.

Finding Answers to Healthier Living
My focus, expertise and specialization is in the dysfunctional interpersonal relationships of individuals, among couples and within families, including parent/child involvement and sibling interaction. My work helps explore the familial patterns, inhibitions and legacies that contribute to impaired functioning, building insights that encourage change. This change will, generally, create adjustments that reverberate within the entire family, work or relationship system. Many who require direction in their lives, or have experienced failed or unfulfilling relationships – yet yearn for a gratifying one – continue to find tremendous success through their work with me. Couples desiring enhanced communication, a deepening of intimacy or, conversely, need help in preparing for separation or adjusting to divorce also learn to recreate a perspective on life based on a deeper understanding of their true motivation.
All tell me they “find my warmth and empathy” a significant contributing force in their healing process.
Mother & Daughter Sessions
Mothers and daughters have a special relationship which often becomes a struggle. I create a unique opportunity for mothers and daughters to effectively communicate with each other. I co-facilitate the special group with my own daughter.
Affairs & Betrayals
When a relationship experiences betrayal
- In mind
- In behavior
- In action
The betrayer and betrayee learn to understand what this is about through my individual/couples counseling
