I have been practicing Marriage & Family Therapy since 1980 and have had the benefit of working in many public and private agencies before establishing my private practice full-time in 1992. As an Approved Supervisor with the American Association for Marriage & Family Therapy, I also train other psychotherapists in the specialty of treating marriages and families.  I have helped hundreds of individuals, couples, and families who are experiencing difficult problems, such as: marriage conflicts; affairs; complicated family constellations, such as stepfamilies, in-laws, and family owned businesses; sexual issues; divorce crises and/or readjustment; parenting/behavior concerns with children and teenagers; depression and anxiety; and unexpected life changes. My goal is to help people identify and alter repetitive patterns.  My work is action oriented. I help people to communicate with each other in a safe, respectful confidential setting. I am well versed in issues of addiction and recovery. I work in Osterville, Massachusetts, conveniently located in-between Hyannis and Falmouth.
