About
I anm independently licensed in MA, TX, and NC. I was trained in same sex couples therapy in NYC and began working with couples in Boston. I have specialized training and experience working with the LGBT and addiction recovery populations. As a member of both these communities, I offer a unique ability to empathize, and connect. I have helped many couples, heterosexual and same sex, increase their levels of intimacy and ability to work through differences - by seeing where they share similarities and compromise.
The goals are set by the clients while I use the research-based elements of the Gottman Method to scaffold treatment. I am a trained Leader in the Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work, incorporating research based principles into every relationship. My goal is to help you attain the best possible version of your partnership; whether that means cohabitation, co-parenting, a polyamorous relationship and/or monogamous marriage, I will support you in building a sound relationship.
