Description I believe in your capacity to change and to fully live and enjoy your life. Relationship struggles, illness, addictions, and many other obstacles may be blocking your way to a fully actualized experience. For over 20 years I have helped people overcome their obstacles, come to a new understanding of their choices and relationships, and experience a new freedom. When given a nurturing environment, people flourish. I provide a therapy that is active, warm, and at the same time challenging enough to help you achieve your goals and reach an enjoyment of life that you didn't know was possible.
I have three specialty area's. I work with couples on relationship and/or parenting issues. I help people with chronic or acute medical conditions cope with pain and with life changes this inevitably brings. And I have several years experience working with substance abusers and their loved ones.
I am Harvard and UCLA educated, raised in New York and relocated to Los Angeles about 25 years ago. I am married with three children. I believe my many life experiences allow me to understand and work with all kinds of people and life situations. I love my work!
