Looking for a therapist? I can help.

Get accessible and personalized mental healthcare from the comfort of your home.

There was a time when meadow, grove, and stream The earth, and every common sight, To me did seem Apparelled in celestial light, The glory and the freshness of a dream. It is not now as it hath been of yore;— Turn wheresoe’er I may, By night or day. The things which I have seen I now can see no more.

— William Wordsworth

Philosophy & Clinical Orientation

My education and experience were traditional, including a thorough grounding in child development and the impact of early experience (attachment patterns, family constellations, and adverse events) on personality and emotional vulnerability and resilience. This training included my own therapy and years of supervision. I am flexible with my interactions with patients and feel privileged to have the opportunity to help.

Experience

My early years included a broad range of clinical settings. I was the consultant psychologist to two preschool groups. I was the psychologist to an elementary school. For several years I worked in a residential treatment program and helped establish an animal assisted and music program for autistic children.

More recently I practiced adult psychotherapy, sometimes brief but also long term insight oriented. I have experience with unipolar and bipolar depression, anxiety disorders, and sexual dysfunctions. I have worked with couples and individuals who are LGBTQ. I tend to eschew labels and diagnosis since people rarely fit strict categories - so I prefer to say that if you are distressed and it is interfering with your life, then therapy is worth considering.
