In my clinical practice, Sunstone Counseling, I help clients overcome a variety of concerns related to the symptoms of anxiety, panic disorder, depression, bipolar disorder, grief/loss, suicidal ideation, shame, low self-esteem, body image, betrayal, and relationship issues. I specialize in women’s issues (pregnancy, perinatal mood disorders, becoming a new mom, and sexuality issues) and couples work (premarital counseling, new parents, low/no sex, repair after an affair, and second marriages – to name a few). I completed Brené Brown’s Daring Way training and am a Certified Daring Way Facilitator.

The Pincus Center specializes in working with clients to build a life filled with pleasure and joy. We will help you to find your inner voice, establish your own goals and find a path that works for you. There is no one true way to do therapy or to live your life. We will help you find the tools to ride the waves of emotions that we all experience instead of being pulled under. We can't make everything perfect but we can make it better. We focus on issues around body acceptance, sexual freedom, neurodiversity, shame, low desire, sexual functioning issues and a wide variety of other mental health issues.

Do you find yourself attracted to the same kind of relationships or partners? Are you stuck in the same patterns and stories? I believe I can help you. I work with adult individuals and couples struggling with various relationship issues including the early stages of dating, maintaining secure relationships, attachment trauma/issues, anxiety, and self-esteem. Additionally, I am passionate about integrative couples and sex therapy. I provide support in areas such as infidelity, sexual dissatisfaction, sexual trauma, and sexual disorders. I hope to foster a sex-positive environment that is free of judgment.

I am a Clinical Member of the Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers, and a Certified Sex Offender Treatment Provider. I am available to individuals, couples, families, groups and systems seeking professional consultation, personal counseling, and clinical treatment. I provide general and specialized clinical services addressing issues of mental health, emotion management and self-regulation problems related to anger, depression, anxiety, trauma, pornography, sexual intimacy and/or addiction, life transitions and stage of change challenges. I specialize in women's relational issues caused by criminal matters and general partner relational problems.

A patient wrote this to me: "You are someone who knows the song in my heart, and could sing it back to me when I had forgotten the words." In my over 27 years of psychotherapy practice, I have learned several things: one is, in meeting with patients, to clear my mind (at least to try hard!) of all the theories and clinical orientations I have absorbed and to allow my emotions, mind, body, and considerable life experience to be present in our interactions.
