Personal Comments:
I provide a safe, comfortable environment where gay, lesbian and straight individuals and couples can freely express themselves. I help couples explore their relationships and improve their communication to strengthen their ties.
My advance training in couples and family therapy has given me greater insight into the effects of parental divorce on the children's adult relationships.
My specialties are adoption and trauma.
I work with clients who have been abused as children or have witnessed domestic violence.
When I work with clients, I help them explore the past and to better understand its impact on the present.
As a mature therapist, I am familiar with the different ages and stages of life. I am sensitive and insightful into what people are experiencing and feeling.
I love my work. I think of therapy as searching for the missing pieces to a puzzle so clients can feel whole again.
I relate well to people of all ages and ethnic groups.

General Comments:
My goal is for patients to discover their true selves and work towards fulfilling their dreams.

My work is directed at helping clients recognize their potential and build upon their strengths.
