I had always intended to remain a generalist. Psychodynamic and relational theories are meant to apply to a broad range of problems that bring people to therapy, and I have enjoyed the variety these approaches brought to my work. I wasn’t looking to develop a niche, but for some reason, the topic of infidelity kept arriving in my waiting room. People were coming in to process betrayal of many forms, and they all sat in different positions of this dilemma (betraying partner, betrayed partner and affair partner). I began to wonder why something so common is still so intensely stigmatized and shaming, leaving those pained by these experiences with so much isolation and such little support.

Seeing a need in my clients, I followed it. I dug deep into their stories, read books, completed trainings, listened to podcasts, and consulted with other therapists who specialize in this area. Esther Perel, one of the leading voices on the topic of infidelity, states that "not condemning affairs does not mean condoning them.” Like Esther, I am not in the business of passing any moral judgment on what you bring to me. I am purely in the business of understanding your experience and the impact that it’s had on you and your relationships. 

I believe that all who are pained deserve healing. All perspectives deserve understanding. I seek to hold space for every angle of this dilemma. No matter where you sit in the affair triangle, I will help you understand what it means to you and what legacy you want it to leave.
