Therapeutic Services

I have an integrated approach to individual therapy that includes a focus on the mind, body and spirit. Our initial sessions are geared toward the exploration of key areas of your life to determine the type of support you will need. As I learn more about you, I will have a better sense of your unique goals and ideal interventions. This will always be a collaborative process and your feedback is encouraged along the way.

My approach to couple's therapy is more structured and didactic in nature. In my years of experience, many couples benefit greatly from support in the areas of communication, conflict resolution, building intimacy and navigating sexuality. We would begin with a questionnaire to assess key domains of your relationship and use this to build your couple's treatment plan. I have completed Level 2 Training in Gottman Method Couple's Therapy  and use this to inform my work. 

Family therapy begins with an in-depth interview and assessment of existing family dynamics. Our time together will consist of conversations about roles, rules, boundaries, needs and expectations. My role is to assist the family members in having clarity around these issues and to support effective, respectful communication

Performance Improvement

Improving performance is an integral part of therapy, consultation, supervision and education. My professional experience in each of these domains will be an asset to Executives, Organizational Leaders and Elite Athletes striving for peak performance. We will identify your goals, explore barriers to accomplishing them and develop the requisite skills to help you maximize your potential.
