Terri: An excellent film about Teens

This film is authentic, touching and wise. I have worked with a lot of teens and this feels real. This film would be great for clinicians, parents and teens--the best teen film since Juno.

Men and Relationships

I have seen the truth of this article many times in my years of


working with men. I don't see it as a put down, just one of the


common differences between men and women.

Dad can be sad too after their child is born.

I have worked with men who become depressed after the birth of their child. I think this is helpful information for the public, for mental health professionals and pediatricians.

Couple's Counseling

As a couple's therapist, I've worked with nearly every couple configuration you can think of (including gay/straight.)

Couples' exist along a continuum from traditional monogamy to experimental.

No matter where they are along the continuum,what works best for most couples are: balance, tolerance, compromise, clear and open communication, mutual problem solving, trust and forgiveness.


I find these to be the primary components to a successful relationship.
