Working with clients in my therapy practice for over 20 years, one thing I know for sure is that when you are struggling emotionally, it affects all areas of your life. My practice is dedicated to helping you get through tough challenges and supporting you as you develop healthier, happier lives. With me you'll find deep listening, strong therapeutic support, and practical collaborative help right away. Clients describe me as "warm, intelligent and dead on accurate in her ability to help me help myself" "solid, experienced, and very professional" and "she helped us laugh again."

I train and work with a wide variety areas including assessment/ treatment of eating disorders, depression, anxiety /fear (including hoarding), trauma therapy, OCD, intensive outpatient couples and family therapy, and GLBT issues. Sometimes known as 'therapist to therapists', I enjoy assisting each of you.

I can serve as Life Coach for those of you who are not in a lot of emotional distress, but feel you could "use a little tweaking" in aspects of your life , your relationships, your vocation. Executives and academics have found this particularly useful. Telephone and on site counseling are available.

Taking the first step toward getting help is often the most difficult
