I made a childhood decision at the age of 13 to become a psychotherapist and, after more than 35 years of experience as a therapist, I continue to love my work with individuals, couples and families. I have been a Licensed Psychologist at the Master's level since 1979 and completed my doctoral degree in clinical psychology in 2003. My 2002 dissertation was entitled "The Development of the Adult Asperger Syndrome Scale." For over fifteen years, I have had a special interest in adults with Asperger Syndrome and worked with those at least 14 years of age and their families, providing diagnosis and treatment. During this time I have worked with over 475 individuals, couples and families with Asperger Syndrome. I see myself as a warm, caring, committed and perceptive psychotherapist, who understands that the delicate balance of being supported and challenged in therapy is highly unique to each person.
