I am a clinical psychologist and author who helps my clients to relieve negative emotions, enjoy personal well-being, and sustain loving relationships
I specialize in using understanding of conflict resolution to help individuals and couples solve their problems.
I am a graduate of Harvard University with a doctorate from New York University. I live what I teach. I have been married for over forty years. My husband and I raised four children, now grown, married, and with children of their own. We now enjoy our 13 grandchildren.
I have written two books on sustaining loving relationships: The Power of Two, The Power of Two Workbook co-authored with my daughter psychologist Dr. Abigail Hirsch. My adult children have made these books into an interactive website called PowerOfTwoMarriage.com. It's fun, teaches vital skills, and is free to try out.
Most recently I have published Prescriptions Without Pills: For Relief from Depression, Anger, Anxiety and More. I do believe that while therapy can be extremely helpful when you feel distressed, a good book can also guide you toward quickly feeling better.
