Becoming Your Own Best Friend and Coming Home to Yourself

When you cultivate the relationship with your Self, you'll become empowered to transform the quality of all your other relationships.

You'll become more authentic, connectable, magnetic, creative and have more substance and depth whenever you're relating.

You will see the problems that brought you into therapy dissipate over time, enhance your well-being and improve the quality of your life and all of your relationships.

Couples Therapy

Couples Therapy

"Relationships are as good as the conversations had."

Relationship breakdown and discord stems from the backlog of unexpressed feelings and unresolved issues forming a wedge of disconnection — an atmosphere of rising tension and unsafety that makes communication impossible.

My role is to create a safe space for couples to begin speaking openly and authentically about those issues and feelings that have long since been avoided. I facilitate the conversations that need to be had. In the process, communication barriers dissolve, they begin to understand each other and come away feeling closer and more connected.

Family Therapy

Family Therapy

Restoring the Flow of Connection

"I know there is a lot more love in our hearts than actually gets expressed or felt."

"I wish there was a way to change how we are with each other."

You may recognize it in your family when:

  • Conversations feel strained — or don't happen at all
  • Old parent–child dynamics still dominate, even in adulthood
  • Defensiveness and reactivity hijack everyday interactions

Family therapy is about building bridges and melting the frozen hearts by opening lines of communication.

We create an atmosphere of safety and openness conducive to sharing in an honest and authentic way — a far cry from the atmosphere of rising tension and unsafety that freezes communication in its tracks. We dive right into the unexpressed feelings and unresolved issues that had become a wedge of disconnection.

Addiction Treatment

Addiction Treatment

Addiction treatment is based on The Relationship Model of Addiction — a new paradigm for understanding addiction and recovery I developed after 30 years of experience as an addiction specialist.

Unhealthy, non-nourishing relationships are the spawning ground of addiction. The backlog of pain from unmet emotional needs or lack of nourishment is the underlying driving force of all addiction.

"Addiction is not a disease. It is a relationship with a means of relief of pain from unmet emotional needs."

Intervention Services

Intervention Services

Are you concerned about a loved one in the throes of addiction or another mental health issue? Facing a crisis and don't know what to say or do? Feeling powerless watching someone you love spiraling down, destroying their lives and relationships?

Feel free to set up a brief time to assess your situation and next action steps.

What Is an Intervention?

The family comes together to express love and support, helping their loved one seek help. It's a structured process that shines light on denial and breaks the code of silence perpetuating the addiction.

Family members share their feelings, painful memories, and how relationships have been impacted, then rehearse what they'll say. Afterwards, the loved one responds to what was shared.
