"I work with adults, adolescents, couples and children experiencing difficulty in a wide range of issues. I specialize in working with trauma, grief/loss, emerging adults (ages 15-25) and couples. Areas of interest are depression, anxiety, eating issues, women's issues, parenting support and life transitions. In my work with couples I utilize the work of John Gottman, Ph.D., an empirically-based approach emphasizing marital friendship, intimacy and respect to create a lasting marital foundation.

Teens come to me for identity development, relationships, school pressures, family issues and mood disorders. Adults see me for anxiety, trauma, personal growth and chronic health challenges. Their goals are to feel understood, express themselves, gain tools to relate healthier with themselves and others and rewrite old narratives that hold them back.

Family Business is in a league of its own. I help family businesses navigate change (or stagnation) by fostering clear decision-making, and helping clients separate family dynamics from business operations. As a former therapist, I noticed that when my family therapy clients had a family business, therapy would only get them so far... At some point, they had to address the nuts and bolts of operations: "I know I hate this position, but the business would fail if I stopped. But things have GOT to change." Sound familiar? Creating new relationship dynamics and habits means changing how you work together, at home AND the office.
