The Practice:
I founded Metropolitan Marriage & Family Therapy, PLLC (Metropolitan MFT), a private psychotherapy practice specializing in working with couples. We assist them succeed at their relationship and cater to individuals wishing to enhance their life and relationships. The practice offers services, programs, products and resources to help our clients make the changes in their life they have been putting off or have not been able to make yet. In our supportive and resourceful format we motivate and assist our clients make the changes they have been seeking. As our expertise is in working with Couples, our resources, services, programming and products focus on Couple Success. Our approach also includes doing personal work so that a meaningful and satisfying relationship is possible. We specialize in pre-marital, individual and couple codependence, infidelity, and anger management work. I have developed innovative concepts, interventions, programs and products in these areas. My Philosophy:
I believe that we can heal and grow in the context of our relationship(s), and that self growth, improvement, development, enhancement ... is a must for our human condition. I believe that any movement we make for our Self, we also make for and enhance our relationship and the world around us. I believe there is synergy in our relationship that has not been tapped, and when this is minded and nurtured it allows the couple to transcend ordinary relating promoting mindfulness, satisfaction, peace, elation and great achievement - including procreating healthy, happy and productive offspring as members of our society. Couples are the building block of families which in turn are the pillars of our society. There is much riding on a healthy, happy, satisfying, productive and synergetic relationship! I consider our relationship as very significant and instrumental in our life. Our significant other is our "Life Partner." A title that shouldn't be taken lightly! I believe that in partnership we can conquer the world. As a team we can do anything we want. This is a unique and ripe partnership where the universe is the limit! This is Mother Nature's way of saying, "I know life can be difficult... you don't have to do it alone - especially if you are ambitious!"

My dream is to see all couples have a conscious, mindful and synergetic relationship where the partners are on the same page, connected, happy and growing individually and as a partnership! Professional Arena:
The practice is also a placement and training site for Marriage and Family Therapists in training and I have created our Internship Program and other services to assist New Professionals in their Journey.
