“Learning from hindsight, gaining insight, and developing foresight” This is the motto I focus on helping my clients to achieve. I’m a compassionate person who genuinely enjoys helping and working with people. I look forward to helping individuals and families who are seeking help coping with a range of psychological, emotional, or behavioral challenges.

No matter how strong we are, we all need help sometimes. We know it can be hard to ask for help. Maybe you’ve been thinking about it for months, even years. We’re so glad you’ve taken this courageous step and found us. We’re confident that together we can develop the tools to help you overcome whatever challenges you face. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety and/or depression interfering in your life, trauma and loss, or life transitions, it is important that you know you don’t have to go it alone. We have the experience to help you face your challenges, achieve your goals, and live a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

I am a compassionate and caring therapist sensitive to the needs of my clients. I have been treating clients with behavioral health and addiction problems for the past 24 years. I specialize in individualizing treatment for each client and understand the role of stress in the environment and how stress impacts on the mind and body. I believe unresolved stress leads to imbalances in brain chemistry which cause depression, anxiety, and physical problems. I focus on making lifestyle changes which aid in the recovery process. Please see my website http://hillsboroughneuropsych.com/ for more information about my self and my associates.

I offer appointments (8am - 8pm) in my new office space (and online)! Creating and clearing space to change unfamiliar and familiar stress is a really big part of therapeutic healing. These struggles often cause avoidance, overthinking, big emotions, or unhelpful habits and attitudes, which tend to cycle and leave you to feel unresolved. Becoming clear about struggles, then learning new ways to cope creates room for amazing change in your today; unraveling confusion, gaining clarity and moving toward to a more, meaningful, congruent and focused life. Individuals (child-adults), couples, and families are welcome!

During these uncertain times, feelings of worry, sadness, anger and loneliness are more common, but you are not alone and do not need to face these feelings in isolation. My goal is to support you as we work together in a safe, non-judgmental environment where you will find compassion, understanding and resolution. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Play Therapist I have 20+ years of experience counseling children, adolescents, and adults specializing in anxiety, trauma, depression, stress, parent/child attachment, grief/loss, family issues, child play therapy and parent training for adoption/foster care.
