Deck the Halls

Maybe you rely way too much on your shrink. You seek her advice on everything: what to have for dinner, when to brush your teeth, which haircut to get, whether to take an umbrella out.

But when it comes to your home, you’re stuck. (Mental health insurance doesn’t cover “what color walls” problems.)

The cure? Liz Levin. Part decorator, part therapist (she has a degree in psychology to complement her keen eye), she can work with just about every type of client, budget, and space.

So you can basically go to her with most any conundrum. First-time homeowner who wants the whole place done up with custom furniture and window treatments? She can do it. Living with two roommates and need some conflict resolution over what looks best where? She can do that, too. Got a rented studio and need a temporary fix and advice on where to put a lamp? She’s your woman.

Levin can even help you find and spruce up a spot for a guest — solving, once and for all, the where-to-put-mom dilemma. 

As for the rest of your mother issues, those are for your other doctor.
