Couples Therapy

The ultimate goal of couples therapy is to reduce conflict and increase emotional intimacy. I take a three-part approach including the analysis of childhood, family of origin dynamics and developmental accomplishment; present time stressors and the creation of future goals, dreams and objectives to create an environment of positive reinforcement and successful communication.

I have a certification in Psychoanalytic Couples Therapy from the University of California at Los Angeles, Neuropsychiatric Institute. This course was taught by renowned professor Walter Bracklemanns, MD. The certification entailed one year of course studies and two years of practicum.
