I’m glad you found this website.  You may be considering therapy for a variety of reasons, from a major crisis to relationship difficulties to a desire for greater fulfillment in your life.  I hope this site helps you make the best decision about beginning counseling or psychotherapy.

I work mainly with adults and late adolescents, individually, in couples and in groups.  The areas I specialize in are sexual issues (individuals or couples), adults molested as children, emotional intimacy, communication, anxiety, depression, self-awareness, and deep and lasting character change.

In my 33 years of practicing counseling and psychotherapy I’ve worked with a wide variety of people of different ethnic backgrounds, sexual orientations, religions, as well as those with physical challenges.  I find it immensely rewarding to work with people who are actively seeking to resolve problems, gain inner peace and elevate their emotional, intellectual and physical wellbeing.

  My approach is a mixture of many different types of therapy, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Gestalt Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Family Systems Therapy, Client Centered Therapy, and Sex Therapy.


On the left are tabs for some of the issues you may be interested in knowing more about. 

The best way to start is to call me at one of the numbers below.  I will be glad to answer a few questions briefly, and if we both agree that it may be a good match, we will set up the first appointment.  In that first appointment, I will ask you more about the reason for coming in and get a little bit of information about your current circumstances and history.

Your right to keep the things you talk about confidential is guaranteed by law by the ethical codes of my profession.  There are limits, which are explained at the end of the Information Form tab.  Other issues related to our work together can be found there as well. 

 If you decide to see another therapist, I wish you the best in your journey of healing, self-discovery, and greater intimacy.  If you’ve decided to call me, I look forward to talking with you soon.
