Therapy is an interesting thing – many people have preconceived notions of what therapy is or should be. Therapy, to me, is simple. You have some issues in your life that are bothering you – maybe you feel down, maybe you can’t get your relationships to work.

​

Everything that you’ve tried hasn’t been helpful or, ultimately, hasn’t gotten you where you want to be. That’s where I come in. I can help you pick up your issue, turn it to an angle that maybe you haven’t seen yet, and brainstorm new ways to address it.

 

I’m rational, pragmatic, and positive in my approach. I won’t give you advice or tell you what to do because I believe the answers are all within you – I help you to find them through my personal and professional experience.

 

I specialize in working with couples and families, and utilize ideas of "differentiation of self" as a way to take a new perspective on marriage and family - not seeing our partners as "problems to be solved," rather seeing the relationship dynamics as the problem and working toward a more loving, kind, caring, and compassionate marriage, family, and self.
