I am a therapist specializing in emotional issues and relationship problems, especially pertaining to couples and families. I have worked professionally in the field for over 30 years and have considerable clinical experience helping people to overcome the personal challenges that they face in their lives.  In addition, I consult with organizations and individuals working to help people deal with life issues more effectively.

A systemic approach is useful in understanding a person's emotional history and the difficulties they encounter in trying to solve the problems they face.  It takes into account the role of family background and our ongoing connection to the emotional system that is family.  It helps us to understand the nature of stress in our lives and how we can better respond to the particular stressors around us in a more resilient, resourceful manner.

In my work I continue to be always impressed with the creative ways that people have of finding solutions to life's problems.  Shifts in how our relationships function start from within.  We need to look carefully at how we position ourselves emotionally in the world if we are to change the quality of the relationships we are in.  Change occurs throughout our lives and therapy can help move us in a positive direction.  Begin by calling.
