Therapy is a powerful tool for changing relationships with your partner, family, or other significant people. Most importantly, therapy can transform your relationship with yourself. My more than 25 years of experience as a psychotherapist has shown that when people improve how they treat and view themselves, even in small ways, the benefits are enormous: less stress, emotional turmoil, anxiety, and negative thinking; more confidence, contentment, life balance, and self-acceptance; and better communication with those you love. Effective counseling does not just analyze your problems, it helps you make permanent changes. I offer both individual psychotherapy and marriage / couples counseling. My approach is supportive and tailored to your unique needs. I am licensed as an MFT in California, Florida, Texas, and Virginia (CA29178; FL MT3036; TX202726; VA0717001377). I am the author of "If You Had Controlling Parents: How to Make Peace With Your Past and Take Your Place in the World" (HarperCollins Publishers); and "Secrets You Keep From Yourself: How to Stop Sabotaging Your Happiness" (St. Martins Press). I also write blogs on relationships and on narcissism for Psychology Today and Medium.com.
