I help women let go of anxiety and live a more peaceful life based on what matters most to them. You may appear confident and calm, but you question your decisions and focus on your mistakes. You want to learn how to stop the anxious thoughts, to feel more confident and thrive. You may be feeling stuck in a relationship, a career, or a painful situation, like infertility.

Life gets messy and painful sometimes. We can get stuck—feeling overwhelmed with trauma, depression, anxiety, undesirable circumstances, and disconnection. Having someone to share these experiences with can help us to get out of our heads and begin living deep within our hearts. I aim to create a space to help you find meaning out of the heaviness and feel empowered by the strengths you already have. You are truly the expert of your story, and I hope to walk with you in your journey towards self-acceptance and self-compassion.

Motherhood...Being a new mom in today's world is filled with new demands, new pressures and new worries. You're expected to have it all "figured-out", to be basking in the joy of this new baby. But, there is a part of you that simply doesn't feel that joy, isn't sure what to expect or how you're supposed to feel about all the changes, in your relationship and even in your body. With all the expectations and demands of being a new mom, there is very little left over for yourself. Before you even realize what has happened, you've forgotten who you are. The reality is that your baby is only a part of a well-balanced life.

I specialize in couples therapy and guide couples to strengthen communication, connection and intimacy. Many of my clients struggle with arguments, tension, or "feeling like roommates". Others face difficulties related to division of household duties, parenting, and sex. Some couples begin therapy for support with one partner's alcohol use, anxiety or depression. Many couples come to me in a state of crisis as they contemplate divorce or grapple with the pain of infidelity. I am well versed in helping couples come together to talk through the challenges they are facing, learn relationship skills, bond, heal and grow.

This is me at the beach with Shannon, our 25 year-old daughter. My wife Vicki and I had the good fortune to raise her here in beautiful San Diego North County, where she has had the opportunity to become an accomplished surfer, sailor, diver, and nature photographer. Vicki and I are a Marriage and Family Therapist team in private practice here for 20+ years in Encinitas, California. As well as seeing couples and families, I have specialized in treating anxiety disorders and phobias, depression, alcohol and substance abuse, and adolescents.
I completed my B.A.degree at the University of Connecticut and graduate training at Purdue University. Using an eclectic approach, I combine elements of cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, client-centered and mindfulness therapies in my practice.

Most of us have struggled at some point with some form of stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and various relationships. Obtaining clarity and relief is often achievable much sooner than realized by understanding your current attitudes, beliefs, and experiences utilizing traditional talk therapy along with mindfulness skills. Learning how to obtain a calmer energy more quickly and effectively when stress arises is foundational for our improved moods and relationships.
