Everyone gets a little stuck sometimes. We experience painful experiences that can be hard to move past. We become overwhelmed by our responsibilities and sometimes burn out. We get in arguments with loved ones, and we make mistakes. We're human. If you're looking to get back on track, you've come to the right place. My goal is to support you in learning to balance the conflicting expectations and responsibilities in your life, and also make time for the things that you enjoy. To support you as you explore your own needs and desires and learn to have compassion for yourself, instead of beating yourself up all of the time.

As an MA Level graduate student, "I believe that much of life’s suffering contains within it an inner meaning, waiting to be discovered, seen, and realized. Where one suffers, is often the place that contains the seed of new development and personal growth. What is being asked of us is to take the steps to enter deep within ourselves, in order to see what needs be seen, and what needs be felt, and do what needs be done. It is in the process of entering into ourselves that we find the “attitude” that meets our true needs. We will collaborate in creating a field of trust, understanding and courage to achieve your goals and heal".

Clients I work really well with are interested in collaborating and brainstorming about the challenging situations and difficulties in their lives. Overtime, we work together to develop understanding and solutions. I particularly enjoy working with individuals who suffer from ADHD or are impacted by someone who has ADHD. Of course clients with ADHD also often have co-morbid conditions like anxiety, depression and PTSD; I am very happy to help them with the issues related to these problems as well. Also, I enjoy completing complex psychological assessments; I find them challenging in a very good way.

Are you somebody who is currently experiencing inner turmoil, conflict, or is having a difficult time being at peace with themselves? Perhaps you're a little too familiar with your inner-critic and seeking a more kind way of engaging with yourself and others. Being a human means experiencing hardships at times, and the question that guides my approach to therapy as we navigate these times together is: "Who do you want to be towards yourself during the difficult moments?" If your answer includes something along the lines of gentle, kind, compassionate, and loving, then you are in the right place.

I have recently joined forces with Psychology Matters as Director of EMDR Therapy and Business Operations. This position allows me to continue to focus on the trauma therapy work for which I have a great passion, as well as collaborating with the Psychology Matters team to meet the greater needs of our community. Having worked in this field for 17 years I've gained a deep appreciation for the influence of our early development on our present ability to cope. With this and the framework of EMDR I am witnessing amazing growth in the people that I am working with.

Here’s what I do to help. I integrate key therapeutic principles drawing on a wide range of psychodynamic, cognitive behavior and dialectical behavior modalities, in which I invite you to sit down and/or ZOOM with me in a relaxed, safe, informal way, and talk. It can be hard to believe that "just talking" can be helpful. But if you’re depressed, anxious and dealing with the impacts and effects of traumatic stress, you can be profoundly healed by an in-depth conversation in which you come to create greater self-understanding, discover insights and meanings, recognize patterns, and explore options and skills.
