If your life has come to a crossroad and you would like someone to walk alongside you as you navigate your journey, you have come to the right place. Feeling uncertain, worried, or hopeless can be scary and hard to cope with. Therapy provides a safe and supportive space to increase your self awareness and improve your ability to cope with stressors. My approach is client-centered, and targets balance between mind and body. The focus areas of my practice are women’s issues, bicultural identity, anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use disorder. I am looking forward to working with you!

I am an Independently Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 15 years of providing direct, clinical services to individuals and families struggling with emotional, behavioral and psychiatric issues. It has been my experience that fear or avoidance of therapy occurs when people are reluctant to talk about past experiences, which can increase emotional pain. This can leave someone feeling helpless, hopeless and scared of the unknown. Healing and recovery is a process and we will work together to achieve positive change and growth in the areas of life you want to address.

As an adult trying to navigate this world, you often find yourself wondering why everyone else seems to have it all figured out while you are struggling. Maybe you can't connect with your partner or you feel labeled by your family and are struggling to find who YOU really are. You hear advice from all different directions and have tried so many different things and nothing seems to be working. You feel defeated- and now it has become a cycle that is just getting worse. Maybe you can't sleep well or you're feeling disconnected. Imagine waking up tomorrow and feeling like you had a better sense of direction. What would that feel like?

I help people struggling with stress, depression, or anxiety as well as relational conflicts within families and couples. I understand the challenges in getting help to get "unstuck" and realize it takes courage to ask for help. However, if you are like many others, you are likely tired of dealing with the same problems and getting the same results. I also help others who avoid dealing with the problem and are finally ready to begin a new life. Finding the right person to guide you should not be taken lightly. Call or email me today.

Making the choice to seek mental health services can be difficult. However, you will feel relief after reaching out and connecting with someone who has your best interest in mind. I am fortunate to have worked with children, teens, parents, families, and young adults in a variety of settings. I strive to provide confidential, caring, practical, and supportive guidance. I especially enjoy working with individuals experiencing: ADHD, anxiety, Autism Spectrum Disorders, adjustment issues (including divorce), depression, learning challenges, behavioral disorders, mood disorders, and parenting concerns.

Finding a therapist that you can connect with can be a difficult experience. For over 25 years, I have dedicated myself to trying to make the process of therapy an experience that is helpful, respectful and solution focused. I work with individuals who might be struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, PTSD, grief or childhood issues that may remain an influence in your adult life.

It is frustrating to feel stuck. It is painful to feel alone and misunderstood, even if you are in a committed relationship. It is exhausting to pretend like you have the confidence. The questions that you are asking yourself right now show that you have the strength needed to heal and to grow.

I am here to help you attain your goals, whether you are seeking increased confidence, a greater sense of calm, peacefulness, or assistance in pursuing a more fulfilling direction in your life. Helping people reach their full potential for happiness and fulfillment in their lives is something that I have been doing and enjoying as a psychologist for over 25 years. If depression, anxiety, or some other issue is standing in your way, my goal is to help you overcome it - permanently - and as quickly as possible. We can do teletherapy, in-person psychotherapy, or both. My work hours/days are quite flexible. Am vaccinated for COVID.

In 1993, I received my Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Human Development and Family Studies from Purdue University. I graduated in 1997 with my Master of Social Work degree from Indiana University - Purdue University at Indianapolis. I have provided both inpatient and outpatient mental health services to children, adolescents, and adults in a variety of settings including hospitals, community mental health centers, youth residential treatment facilities, group homes, and private practice. My areas of specialization include anxiety, depression, ADHD, marital & couples issues, family issues, parenting issues, child and adolescent behavior problems, and divorce/custody issues.

Are you experiencing panic attacks, social anxiety or excessive worry? Are you having a hard time falling asleep, or are worries keeping you up all night? Perhaps you are stuck in the cycle of perfectionism, where no matter what you do, it never feels like you are good enough? If these questions are speaking to you, I am so glad you have reached out for help. Anxiety and perfectionism can be truly painful and debilitating. They can impact your ability to love and accept yourself, enjoy fulfilling relationships, reach your potential, get tasks done, or simply feel able to relax and enjoy life.

I am passionate about working with people who have anxiety disorders and OCD - in my experience they are clear how long they have suffered, they work hard in treatment, and, then, they get better. That, to me, is the point of treatment... to feel better and to start doing the things in life you value. Anxiety and OCD can make you feel horribly stuck in fears and upsetting thoughts, often having thoughts that leave you confused or terrified. My treatment specialty, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), aims to make thoughts less scary and to make things that feel impossible... easier.

Perhaps you're more worried than you'd like to admit. Or life just feels flat and empty, and your mood seldom gets better. Are you losing your temper more than you should? Maybe your closest relationship is getting really uncomfortable (to put it mildly). We can work together to help you become more at peace with yourself, while living a life of values that matter to you. (Not to mention allowing more joy and meaning into your life!)

Congratulations! Deciding to seek professional help to make sustained change is a brave step toward realizing those goals and I hope to be of assistance. As a licensed clinical psychologist I studied and trained in research-based psychotherapies and now employ a variety of empirically-supported treatments in my practice aimed at enabling my clients to achieve functional improvement and a richer quality of life.

You feel lost. You use to have a great relationship, but something has been missing for a while. No matter what you try, you just stay stuck in the same old ruts. You have lost your connection with your partner and don't know how to get it back. Intimacy is becoming a distant memory. You struggle with communicating what you need. Your discussions either get brushed off or turn into an argument. Don't despair. This is what happens in most relationships over time. Choose to rebuild your relationship and start living the life you deserve.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years experience in the mental health field. I have worked with clients of all ages and backgrounds dealing with a variety of issues. Prior to starting in my current practice I worked in Community Mental Health and in a hospital setting doing crisis work. Being a wife and mother, I also feel that I have a true understanding of the stresses of everyday life for families.

As a licensed clinical psychologist and health service provider in psychology, I provide psychological services for children and adolescents ranging from preschool age to the end of the high school years. These services include individual, family, and group therapy services and psychological evaluations. I assist children and adolescents with various issues including depression, anxiety, anger management, stress management, self esteem concerns, ADHD, learning problems, autism spectrum disorder, grief issues, behavior problems, and relationship difficulties with family members and peers.

The choice to change your life's direction can be a challenging one, much like finding the right therapist. If you are looking for extra support through a difficult time or seeking to set out on a path of self-discovery, I can help you achieve your goals. So many of us struggle to experience the type of life we know we deserve; by working together in a relaxing and healing environment, you and I can come to a better understanding of what may be holding you back. Thank you for the opportunity to take part in your journey.

Parents: You want the best for your child, but you don't know what to do to help him or her. Your child did not come with an owner's manual. You don't need blame, you need help! I understand that a child's behaviors serve a purpose, and we work together to eliminate the need for the behaviors or to fulfill the need in healthier ways. And if the problem isn't that serious? Well, coaching may be better for your child than therapy--we work on strategies to improve behavior or schoolwork or whatever your concern is.
