Area of Expertise

I specialize in working with people who are being abused and/or abusive in their relationships.

Indicators that you are:
Being Abused
Being Abusive

I work in a way that respects the needs, values, feelings, goals, and the safety of both partners.

I frequently see and work with:
  • Men who feel lost and/or victimized
  • Women who want to end a pattern of being abused
  • Men who want do something about their own abusive behavior
  • Women who recognize themselves as abusive
Most often, couples and even individuals are a combination of these. I have a balanced approach, focused on empowering clients to envision and make relationships in more satisfying ways.



I began developing this specialization when I attended a training at a local Domestic Violence agency in the summer of 2000. I worked and trained there for six years, facilitating groups and meeting with people individually as needed. I ran the offender treatment groups for men and for women, taught anger management, worked with women in transitional housing, women in early recovery, and provided volunteer trainings. Now I teach masters and post-masters level courses on Spousal/Partner Abuse for JFK University and for the Wright Institute among other agencies and organizations. From mild to more extreme, whether verbal and emotional, physical, economic, or all of these, abusive relationships are a primary focus of my private practice, where I have been working with clients on these issues since 2002.
