I provide help for a variety of problems that trouble people, such as anxiety, depression and other mood disorders, relationship difficulties, and developmental transitions. I also have two areas of special interest. My first main area of special interest is in helping people face infertility/fertility challenges, from diagnosis through resolution, either through fertility treatments, third party reproduction, adoption or child free living. When family building is delayed or blocked this presents a major life crisis that easily turns into trauma. Counseling can turn despair into repair by increasing and strenthening coping skills, and developing and building resilience. A second area of special interest is in helping people eating disorders, compulsions, and addictions (substance abuse, gambling, sexual, pornography, and shopping, etc.).
