Therapy for Adults and Couples in Franklin Lakes, NJ
Being capable and successful doesn't mean you're not struggling.
You may be managing work, family, relationships, and countless responsibilities while feeling increasingly overwhelmed. Perhaps your relationship has changed, ADHD is creating friction at home, intimacy has become difficult, or you're entering a new stage of life and aren't quite sure what comes next.
I work with adults and couples from Franklin Lakes and surrounding communities who want to understand the bigger picture—not just address whichever problem happens to be most visible right now.
Therapy for Relationships, Intimacy and Neurodivergence
The different parts of life don't exist in separate boxes.
Stress can affect a relationship. ADHD can affect communication. Parenting can affect intimacy. A major life transition can change how you see yourself.
That's why therapy sometimes needs to look at the connections between these things rather than treating each concern separately.
I help adults and couples understand those connections and identify patterns that may no longer be serving them.
Couples and Sex Therapy
You can love your partner and still feel disconnected.
I work with couples experiencing recurring conflict, communication difficulties, emotional distance, parenting disagreements, mismatched desire, changes in intimacy, and the effects of infidelity.
Sex therapy provides an opportunity to talk about sexuality and intimacy in a setting where you don't have to minimize, avoid, or feel embarrassed about what's happening.
As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I work with both couples and individuals around desire, sexual connection, and other concerns related to sexuality and relationships.
ADHD and Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy
ADHD can affect relationships in ways that aren't always immediately obvious.
Differences in attention, executive functioning, emotional regulation, time management, sensory needs, and communication can become sources of frustration between partners and within families.
I work with adults and couples from a neurodiversity-affirming perspective. Rather than treating differences as character flaws, we look at how each person's brain and needs affect the relationship and what can be done differently.
Individual and Parenting Therapy
I provide individual therapy for adults dealing with anxiety, overwhelm, relationship difficulties, parenting stress, identity questions, and significant life changes.
I also work with parents who are trying to navigate the competing demands of family life, including parenting differences, neurodivergent children, school challenges, and the emotional weight of being responsible for everyone else.
Therapy can be a place to make room for yourself again.
