Do you ever feel like people around you have something special that you lack? Perhaps you tend to keep people at a distance so they won’t see your flaws. Or maybe you notice you prioritize everyone else’s feelings, while not listening enough to yours? Over time, you’ve noticed a pattern of minimizing your own needs and carrying the belief that you have to face everything by yourself. If this feels true to you, you may be living in alignment with beliefs that no longer serve you. My hope is to help you engage in your story to live more authentic, empowered, & connected to yourself and others.

I want to help you find your center again. Anxious or depressive thoughts pop up and interrupt the life you are trying to lead. The story you thought was going to play out for your life, somehow just doesn't happen. I want to help you rewrite whatever parts of your narrative aren't working for you. You can find a way toward a better life, but you have to understand how your story impacts the way you show up in your own skin and the way you pursue relationship. If hope feels hard to find, I can help. The life you want can feel more in reach, as you find a better understanding of who you were meant to be.

Unless you've done intentional awareness work, your primitive brain is likely running your life. This may look like over or under reliance on those closest to you, leading to chronic frustration, disappointment, overwhelm and loneliness. I can help.
Learning about your conditioned behaviors, the coping patterns that worked in childhood but are now destructive, and how to stretch your tolerance for new experiences - allows your anxiety to settle and builds a deeper acceptance of yourself and others - diminishing depression and isolation.

I am passionate about meeting each client with compassion and authenticity. I believe vulnerability is a strength and strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel genuinely seen and heard as they share their stories.

There are unique reasons for seeking counseling. You may be a woman dealing with stressors of being a wife, mom, an empty nester, a professional or the aging process; you've forgotten who you are and how to find balance. Memories of childhood may be impacting your present or maybe you want to know how your childhood impacts your present. You're overwhelmed with anxiety and may struggling in relationships. Maybe your relationship is new and you want to focus on it before taking a next step or you're new parents and want to learn how to balance. Regardless of who you are, your desire to have a sense of self and security is a priority.

Life does the best it can to squeeze out every ounce of resilience we have in us. What do you do when you’ve come to the end of yourself?
We aren’t wired to face the hurt, fear, and loneliness of life alone; yet, so many of us struggle silently, needing a better way forward.
What if you had a dedicated space with a caring guide to help identify what's getting in the way of what you want for yourself? Maybe it's better relationships — with yourself, a parent, a spouse. Or, a way to move through your anxiety in a way that doesn't feel so crippling. What about a place to make space for your grief and not be alone in it?

Do you struggle with sex getting more daily attention than your closest relationships? Maybe a previous infidelity or betrayal continues to plague the relationship? Many of my clients struggle to make sense of emotions, but long to feel safe and connected to friends and family. Despite our best protective strategies, emotional experiences will not be ignored. Over a lifespan, adaptive protective strategies of the past become our prisons. Mal-adaptive in the present, old and helpful strategies of the past form the barriers to trusting safe and connected relationships we all desperately desire.

My specialty is RELATIONSHIP COACHING, seeing clients as couples as well as individually. I offer specific protocols for successful relationships especially designed for difficult situations, including betrayal. I have been practicing Clinical Psychology for 30+ years and have been with Brentwood Counseling Associates, the oldest psychological practice in this area, since 1988.
I see clients of all ages, starting from adolescence. Sub-specialties include: ADDICTIONS; ANXIETY; DEPRESSION; SPIRITUAL/RELIGIOUS ISSUES. HYPNOTHERAPY can be used for these problems, or for smoking cessation, weight issues, fear of flying and other phobias. I am a member of the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis.

If you've made it this far, you're ready for a change. You may not be certain what that change needs to be, but you know that things can't keep going the way they are. Maybe you're sick and tired of being depressed or anxious all the time. Maybe your relationships are in trouble and you need help fixing them. Maybe your teenager is in trouble and they need someone to talk to because you've run out of answers.

Parenting a child with big emotions can feel overwhelming and isolating, but you don’t have to do it alone. When emotions run high, it’s not just about stopping meltdowns; it’s about understanding what your child is communicating. I work directly with children and parents to address anger, ADHD, anxiety, trauma, divorce, and grief by building emotional regulation, strengthening connection, and supporting resilience. I help parents move from power struggles to co-regulation, so families feel safer, calmer, and more confident.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or impacted by experiences that continue to shape your life, you’re not alone. Many people come to counseling feeling discouraged that insight alone hasn’t brought the relief they hoped for—especially when anxiety or past trauma still shows up in their body, emotions, or relationships. It is my privilege to walk alongside clients as they begin to make sense of their experiences and move toward healing. Together, we work toward moving beyond survival and into a life marked by greater clarity, resilience, and hope.
