Therapy is a challenging experience. Having thirty + years of experience as a licensed psychologist working with adults and adolescents, I know that finding a "good fit" can be difficult, yet is critical to the therapeutic process. Ultimately the best results are achieved when the therapeutic relationship is one of trust and comfort.

My approach is one that is psychodynamically informed, but relational in style, warm and supportive, but direct. Currently I work with adults and adolescents. Though I no longer work with young children, I have a specialty in ages 0 to 6 and I do a great deal of parenting work both privately and in schools.
