About Me

Whether I see you as a divorce mediator, counselor or coach, I am passionate about helping people to create the lives they long for.  Choosing a therapist, coach or mediator is a big decision. Training and experience are essential, but I believe it is ultimately the human-to-human contact that makes it effective. Not every practitioner is suited to every client, but when it works, it works!

Education

Therapy:   I received a Master of Arts in Expressive Therapy from Lesley University in 1984.l  Over the past 25+ years of practice, I have trained in many modalities including Internal Family Systems, Couples/Family Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, & more.  These are all important -- but my work with each person is unique to what they need and feel comfortable with.  

I am licensed as a Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts.

Mediation:  I completed Basic Mediation and Divorce Mediation Training with MWI in Boston, MA.  I also completed Collaborative Practice Training with the Mass. Collaborative Law Council (MCLC).
