In practice for 23 years, I am a trauma informed therapist and Level III Attachment Focused EMDR therapist trained through the Parnell Institute for EMDR.

Are you tired of working so hard in life but feel frustrated, overwhelmed, and unfulfilled? On the outside, things may look like everything is going well. But inside, your emotions, personal struggles and/or relationship challenges are bringing you down. You may be feeling exhausted, stressed out and sad by painful memories, life experiences or marital problems. You want things to be different and realize it’s time to do something different. You want to heal the pain you’ve been experiencing and feel more optimistic about your future. You deserve to have more satisfaction and enjoyment in the life you worked so hard to achieve.

I have been working with children and adolescents and their families for over 41 years. Therapy includes sessions with child and consultations with parents. When appropriate and with the parents' permission, consultations with teachers and other school personnel are conducted. I will speak with any person that impacts your child's life. Ultimately, the goal of therapy is to create conditions in your child's life that will lead to their growth and development. Recently, I have had success with young children experiencing anxiety due to sensory integration over-load and separation anxiety.

In my work as a clinical psychologist, I believe the connection between therapist and client to be the most important agent of change. Healing happens best in the context of a warm, collaborative and supportive relationship. When an individual is going through a difficult time or life experience, he or she often feels small, disconnected and incapable of making positive changes on his or her own. In safe connection, it becomes possible for the individual to feel empowered, connected and more flexible and capable of making the decisions and behavioral changes necessary to heal and/or move forward.
