Individuals (more information)

Are you worrying a lot and thinking you are not living the life you had envisioned? Are you feeling sad or blue or plagued by doubts? Are you angry or frustrated, perhaps without even knowing why? Would you like to have more skills for understanding and managing your feelings and your interactions with others? Or would you simply like help enjoying your life or navigating a big life transition?

Couples (more information)

Are you and your partner wondering what happened to the relationship you once had? Are you feeling like strangers and struggling to understand and get along with each other? Are the arguments becoming more hurtful or the silences more prolonged? Would you like help understanding each other and feeling closer and more loving? Many people come in when it's almost too late to turn things around.

Children and Adolescents (more information)

Does your child struggle with behavioral outbursts, excessive worrying, making friends, or studying effectively? Is your child acting depressed or anxious? Has your teenager become socially isolated? Is he or she refusing to talk about what they are feeling and what is happening in their life? Would you like guidance as a parent? Would your child like someone new and experienced to talk to?

I hope to have the opportunity to help you. As an experienced psychologist, I act as a guide; listening and responding, helping you along your path, working from where you are, and being sensitive to your needs at each turn in the road. Together, we create a safe, warm, respectful atmosphere that encourages exploration.

Call or email me for an initial confidential phone consultation. I offer therapy in English, Spanish, and French.
