Welcome. Congratulations on taking this step to make change in your life. It takes a tremendous amount of bravery and belief that things can change just to land here. As a patient, your goals and treatment will be based on what you know best about yourself and what you want in your life. My role is to offer supportive guidance to get you to that place, without judgement or force. We will also develop an understanding of how your learned behaviors and emotional reactions to issues that may be causing discomfort for you are at the crux of your automatic thoughts and behaviors.

I counsel professionals who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and substance abuse issues that are impacting them at work and in their personal relationships. I embrace a strengths-based approach of therapy that emphasizes collaboration with a client to identify and utilize the strengths they already have to achieve the goals that are important to them. I also understand the value in meeting clients where they are now before we can start working on their therapeutic goals.

I specialize in working with adolescents and adults. I walk with my clients outdoors in a park or on a trail. My clients benefit from being out in nature and tend to open up in this calm and comfortable environment. I help clients improve coping skills and build self esteem in the most natural way, taking time to improve themselves and take charge of the direction of their lives. I focus on a full range of issues including decreasing anxiety, improving social functioning, regulating emotions, and building healthy relationships.

Do you find yourself unable to cope with the pressures of daily life? What is going on in your mind? If you have ever struggled to express your ideas or emotions, counseling is the best place to do so in a safe and supportive environment.

I provide psychotherapy/counseling to children/teens experiencing anxiety (separation, social, excessive worry, panic, and phobias), depression and/or ADHD. In addition, I specialize in anxiety, stress & depression that is specifically tied to (1) health concerns (e.g., type 1 diabetes, picky eating/ARFID, food allergy, chronic pain, GI, sleep, etc) and/or (2) identity concerns (race/ethnicity, LGBTQIA+, religion). Lastly, I have a specialization in preschool mental health through providing Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) for anxiety and temper tantrums/moodiness in young children.

Clients come to counseling for various reasons. In my experience with the clients, some of them just needed time and space for them to be heard because they did not have that resource with others in their life. Their friends and family could be great support but couldn’t necessarily offer professional help such as treatment. Some people, including myself, may struggle with things they are not able to express clearly. Some may be just confused about life and need some coaching from the counselors.

I help clients who are struggling with a variety of issues including family, educational or professional concerns. I'll help you look at patterns of behavior, your upbringing, environment and current interactions so we can determine the next steps to achieve your goals. I value and respect the whole person and believe embracing all aspects of one's identity is essential.

If you feel as if life is out of control, feel helpless and hopeless, or feel down from the challenges of life, then you've come to the right place. I work to support you in improving your life and relationships by developing deeper insight of these difficulties, improving communication with others, and building new skills. I strive to empower you through this change by identifying your strengths and building a solid foundation to grow from. I provide openness, trust, and respect throughout our journey together, and always come from a genuine, non-judgmental space as we collaborate together to help you make the changes you desire.

I have been helping people for 30+ years. It is my delight to see my patients grow and experience ways of feeling they never imagined. I create a safe environment in which you feel you can tell me any problem and be listened to with compassion and without shame. I have successfuly treated people who suffer from anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and work related problems with very high success rates. I am very devoted to the people I see and will help you make your life better by finding new ways of reacting to situations and people that are problematic.

What if life's stressors could feel a bit more manageable? What if we could set ambitious, yet realistic goals and accomplish them one-by-one? Despite all of the stressors facing us on a day-to-day basis, positive change is attainable. My approach to therapy is strength-based and involves a warm, collaborative process in which we assess barriers to success, set realistic goals, and monitor progress over time.

Hi, are you having a hard time you can't deal with? In crisis? Lonely? Feeling stuck? Lost? Having difficulties with your family, social or work relationships?

With my professional help, we can work together to find those answers within the frame of a strong, safe, confidential and warm therapeutic relationship. Through this process, you will stop and think, have access to your emotional strengths (everybody has them) to overcome the present crisis or perhaps to work on traumatic experiences from the past.

I provide support and guidance to children, adolescents, and families in order to help them learn healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. We live in a complex and stressful world and are not always equipped with practical strategies to handle the challenges of everyday life or its more unusual challenges. My goal is to help individuals and families develop more satisfying lives. I treat clients with a broad range of psychological concerns. I use a practical and comprehensive approach, addressing each individual's issues within the context of the family, school, and community.
