I've been a licensed clinical social worker for over twenty five years, and in that time I've learned that most people don't come to therapy because they want to talk about their problems. They come because they're ready for something to actually change. My training is in trauma, and EMDR has been a core part of how I work for a long time now, but the bulk of my practice is with women navigating a major shift, dating again after years out of the field, going through a divorce or a breakup, becoming a mother, working through midlife issues, or dealing with work related stress and burnout. I also work with couples who are trying to figure out whether they can rebuild something or whether they're ready to move on, and either way, want to do it with more clarity than they came in with. What tends to set my work apart is that I never treat a person's background, whatever it is, as separate from what's actually going on with them clinically. That comes out of years spent developing a real depth in Jewish cultural competency the psychological impact of antisemitism , work I also train other clinicians and organizations in, but the underlying skill is the same no matter who is sitting across from me, understanding the full context someone is carrying and working with it, not around it. I've been in private practice since 2008. If you're looking for someone who takes what's going on seriously and has the years behind her to know what actually helps, I'd be glad to talk.

Not interested in weekly sessions? I offer bespoke multi-hour intensives for clients looking for deep work which can lead to transformation. With uninterrupted time, you can dive deep into issues which have been holding you back. There is space to explore, release and move forward - without rushing or stopping early. Common topics women focus on: processing sexual assaults, war experiences, medical trauma, religious trauma, anger, guilt, and phobias. Modalities used: somatic tapping, brainspotting, flash, deep brain reorienting, IFS/Parts work, Schema work. Depending on client interests, in person sessions in Mobile, Alabama may also include using art supplies, exploring symbolism with oracle or tarot cards, incorporating movement with yoga, or going outside to walk in a park or at nearby beaches at the Gulf of Mexico. Many people fly in for therapy and combine it with a vacation. Intensives are a minimum of 3 hours to a maximum of 7 hours in one or more days. Many people will schedule a 4 hour morning session followed by an afternoon at the beach and repeat that for two or three days. Intensives can be during the weekday or on weekend. We will have one meeting before the intensive to clearly define your goals for the intensive. After the intensive, there will be a short follow up meeting to discuss the results of the intensive. All intensives are private pay. No superbill or diagnosis will be provided. A non-refundable deposit is required.
