Individual therapy gives you the chance for privacy and focused concern for your experience and your personal growth.  While my psychodynamic approach allows for deeper understanding of your struggles, I always keep your circumstances of personal and social identity in mind.

Individual Therapy

Meeting as a family, or with part of your family, I will help you learn to notice your needs for understanding and concern and also to appreciate when you can be a reassuring source of support and care for family members who need your help.

Family Therapy

Child-rearing turns out to be relentlessly demanding - and potentially full of reward and a source of personal growth. When you have a child in trouble - or a troubled child - you need compassion and curiosity as well as trauma-informed and developmentally-oriented conversation. Personally I have raised five children, and that humbling experience informs my work with you.

I love working with adoptive parents - and their children.

Parent Guidance and Support

We are all members of many groups - family, friends and work, to name a few. We were born into a group, and we know ourselves as people because we are in social relations with others. Many of us have experienced pain and disappointment in our group lives. Group therapy puts the power of human connection and understanding to work for you, to help you go past surviving and move on to thriving.
