I believe life is about honoring our values, connecting deeply with others, and choosing our own paths. Many of my clients wrestle with complex issues in their relationships, such as religion, sexuality, and parenting. I support them in learning to disagree, negotiate, and deal with conflict confidently and sensitively. A number of my clients are highly-sensitive and benefit from practicing assertiveness, distress-tolerance, and self-soothing techniques. I work with religious, unreligious, nuanced, and mixed-faith couples and families to build on common ground and address differences and disagreements in ways that honor personal integrity. As part of a blended family and mixed-faith marriage myself, I understand the inherent challenges and potential rewards of approaching differences with courage and love. Life can be excruciatingly painful, but we have tremendous influence over the quality of our lives and relationships. I'm committed to helping clients gain the skills, courage, and wisdom they need to honor their values, cherish their loved ones, and live lives they're proud of.
