My Approach to Helping

My clients are individuals (adults or children), couples, or families struggling with unresolved issues. In marriage and family therapy, I empower clients to have more successful relationships and deal with unwanted emotions. If parents decide to divorce or are dealing with the aftermath of divorce, I help minimize the negative effects on the parents and their children. Even though each spouse or parent may think they want the practitioner to take sides, the best outcome is negotiated in a neutral setting. I have worked with families and their attorneys in litigated and collaborative divorces.
