Life can be challenging and there may be times when you feel too stressed, too overwhelmed, or too defeated to see that you can work things out and be hopeful and happy again. Or life events happen that throw you off course and make you question your coping skills. Or it may feel like relationships, career directions, or school aspirations aren’t as successful or as rewarding as you would like. While it can be difficult to reach out for support, taking that leap to accept help is a step towards hope, healing, connection and strength.

Slowing down is hard when our lives are busy, and we feel out of balance—it can feel like there is very little time to work on ourselves.  Therapy is about creating space for positive change. When we do manage to slow down and make room for ourselves, we can grow and create lasting adjustments that make our lives more balanced.  Entering therapy provides that space and opportunity. I work collaboratively with my clients, providing a safe and non-judgmental space to explore issues, gain perspective, develop new and creative coping skills, and strengthen one’s relationship with themselves and with others.

I recognize how difficult it can be to take that first step towards seeking help for problems of everyday life. However, this small leap of faith can yield tremendous benefits, particularly when you find a therapist that matches well with your individual needs. Above all else I believe it is vital that any therapeutic relationship be based on compassion and respect. It is my responsibility to create this environment for the individuals I treat so that together we can broaden our understanding of the problems and work towards solutions.

In order for therapy to work, it's important to choose the right therapist-someone you trust, someone who makes you feel cared for, someone who has the experience to help you make changes for the better in your life. I am a warm, caring and supportive psychotherapist who will make you feel safe and comfortable. I can help you cope with and heal from a variety of mental health issues and the stressors that life presents. I have extensive experience and success working with individuals suffering with anxiety, panic attacks and agoraphobia.

Are you considering a major life change or looking for something different for yourself? Perhaps this brings about increased levels of stress and anxiety. I work with many people trying to do the same and have found that process of realizing goals and figuring out the next steps can lie in the smaller moments of your past. I can help you identify and leverage those experiences to discover your own inner resources and strengths. Together, we can explore how to apply those skills to meet new challenges and move forward. Whether you need to practice a bit more or adapt to a new task, therapy with me is a safe space to do just that.

I am a clinical psychologist who has been trained in both psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy.

I am also collaborative with psychiatrists in the treatment of my clients.

I specialize in the treatment of children, adolescents, and adults suffering from psychological disorders, such as depression and anxiety.

I am Bilingual/Bicultural and have over 28 years experience treating Individuals and Couples. Conflicts impeding communication and resolution of self-destructive behaviors are typical concerns raised in therapy. Clients often are looking for new strategies to help cope with life's changing circumstances and to remove obstacles preventing growth. To explore these issues, a safe and confidential environment must be established. I am dedicated to working with care, compassion and respect for my clients throughout the therapeutic process.

The idea of therapy can sometimes be overwhelming, even more overwhelming then what lead you to search for a therapist in the first place. The truth is, however, that therapy can be whatever you need it to be. Whether something as big as a life transition or something as small as a series of bad days, the therapeutic relationship can be a tool for examining, venting, learning, or guiding. It is a nonjudgmental space where you can bring anything on your mind and find the tailor-made support you need to move through and forward. My goal is to provide a comfortable environment and dedicated time for clients to hone in on themselves.

I know it is not easy to reach out for help during life's most difficult times. I offer clients a space free of judgement to explore their greatest challenges and stressors. Connecting with the right therapist, working together in a caring and supportive environment, will help guide you in the right direction. My ultimate goal for each and every person I work with is that they are reaching their full potential and feel their absolute best.

Especially for some of the most successful among us, we can hold ourselves to the highest standards of performance in all areas. Sometimes we may feel that we're supposed to have all the answers to the challenges life throws our way, even when that isn’t always possible. An achievement focus can come at the expense of other areas of our lives. I see therapy as a collaborative experience. I work with individuals and couples to help unlock what holds them back to gain an understanding of how our histories shape our present, while building a foundation of skills in the here-in-now to promote healing and a future that is self-defined.
