At times, life can seem overwhelming leaving you feeling anxious, stressed, and helpless. This past year has been especially difficult for many people. As a clinical psychologist I offer new healthy ways to manage and cope with life stressors and help you develop insight to improve awareness of your inner experience and automatic reactions. Using my training in clinical psychology, health psychology and neuropsychology, I highly personalize treatment to help you achieve symptom relief leaving you free to pursue your life goals and feel an overall sense of happiness and wellbeing.

My approach to treatment is collaborative; I believe people are experts on themselves, and my role is to create a healing space that allows you to develop the tools needed to cultivate adequate coping resources. I emphasize building healthy relationships with the self, and others as a path to wellness. My style strikes a balance between providing empathy, and warmth when needed, and accountability and structure when appropriate. I am also committed to treating the whole person, and incorporate social context, and power dynamics into my conceptualization, and interventions. I look forward to our work together.

Let's face it, it's not easy coming to the decision to seek out counseling, let alone calling a complete stranger to do so.

I am a straightforward person who values humor and compassion in relationships. I will not dispense advice but will challenge you to think about yourself in new ways, encourage you to look at yourself honestly and talk about painful issues that you keep at a distance. My role is to help you figure out what needs to change in your life and then help you make those changes.The goal is for you to develop trust in your own wisdom and judgment so that you learn to look inside yourself for the answers you seek.

My aspiration as a psychologist is to help you reach your goals by constructing an individualized therapeutic approach that considers your strengths and inherent abilities. I draw upon my training in diverse treatment types to help you achieve the progress you strive for. I believe in utilizing a two pronged approach: I guide you toward learning strategies to reduce distress and increase your coping skills, while at the same time identifying deeper factors that underlie your presenting challenges. I find that addressing problems on both of these levels minimizes the time it takes to feel relief and maximizes the lasting impact of the therapy.

I am a psychologist who has provided psychotherapy and psychological testing services to children, adolescents, and adults for over 30 years. I have developed a particular interest in working with hypersensitive children and in the differential diagnosis of ADHD and Bipolar Disorder. Many of the pervasively hypersensitive children and adolescents with whom I work have come to me with a diagnosis of ADHD, but are then found, after a thorough evaluation, to have either an anxiety or mood disorder. As a therapist who works primarily with children and adolescents, I have found that when children feel understood and valued, they connect.

Do you or your child experience overwhelming and uncomfortable emotions such as anxiety, depression, or anger? Do you feel unequipped to handle the everyday stresses of life? Is your child struggling with schoolwork, attention, or social skills? Do you want to be more productive, eat more healthfully, and work towards accomplishing your life's goals? If you answered "Yes" to any of these questions, we may be able to help.

People who seek treatment are often burdened with the worry that it might take too long, will "not work" or will come back. Since beginning clinical practice, I have always made it my business to have my patients engage in the therapy both in and out of session, understand the therapy process and stick to one's goals. The CBT model that I use and tailor to each particular individual's need, helps empower patients to reach their goals both in therapy and beyond... in life itself.
