I have counseled many individuals for the following: self-injury, separation and divorce, processing loss and trauma, coping with a family member with mental illness or addiction, immigration and acculturation challenges, anxiety, including panic, anger management issues, work and life balance issues, attention deficit and attention hyperactivity disorder, life stage transitions, young adult development, emotion regulation issues, stress management, midlife issues, trauma/PTSD (Post traumatic stress disorder), borderline personality disorder, abuse, women’s issues, spirituality, and desire to increase quality of life.

Couples may attend therapy to address relationship or marriage dissatisfaction, sexual intimacy issues, or to foster connection.

I have counseled couples on the following: separation and divorce, high couple conflict, sex therapy and sexual dysfunction, affairs and infidelity, remarriage, marital satisfaction and increase in emotional and physical intimacy, premarital issues, and life stage transitions.
