I help people deal with difficult feelings, relationships, substance abuse, sex addiction, and other problems they may face. I provide individual therapy as well as couples therapy. Though it may be difficult to take the first step to seek help, engaging in therapy can be a doorway to fulfilling changes.
If you are suffering from depression, anxiety, and doubt that it is possible to change these feelings, remember, you are not alone. I work in partnership with you to examine patterns that may no longer be useful and to learn how to identify and harness your strengths. My approach is compassionate, direct, and collaborative.

About Me
Report
From a young age I was interested in my own thought process as well as those of family members and friends. I was curious about what led to development of painful habits, arguments, feeling states and how change happens. This interest fueled years of training to become a psychotherapist. Today I continue to learn and evolve both in my psychotherapy office and in the classroom.
Couples Therapy
Report
A relationship can be a fulfilling place for growth and love. It can also be a challenging endeavor. While disagreements and fluctuations in intimacy are normal, sometimes couples get off track. In couples therapy I provide a space for each individual to be heard and understood. I focus on improving communication and intimacy as well as addressing patterns that may not be working.
Substance Abuse
Report
I have extensive experience helping clients with substance abuse, alcohol abuse, and drug addiction. I have found that clients have unique relationships with substances. An important part of this addiction therapy is finding the utility and meaning of substance use in one's life and identifying the changes you want to make.
LGBT Clients
Report
I have years of experience and a deep understanding of the unique challenges that lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender and queer individuals and couples face. You may be feeling sad, lonely, anxious, angry or concerned with your relationship. You might have questions about your sexuality, self-judgment, or difficulty negotiating the discomfort of family and friends with your sexuality.
Sex Addiction
Report
Sex addiction comprises an array of behaviors that are stimulating, have a powerful pull to engage in, and can lead to emotional, relational, legal, financial, health and other problems. While engaging in these sexual behaviors one often feels excited, uninhibited, numb and can forget the realities and challenges of life.
