My approach to therapy is all about connection and self-compassion. I am not a sit and nod therapist, I use a direct approach in a relaxed environment without judgement. I believe that setting boundaries and using self-care can lead to a happier, more fulfilling life. I have a particular interest in working with individuals who have relationship issues, and/or identity concerns or who are going through life transitions. Career, relationship, and identity issues are my passion.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing a variety of mental health assessment and therapy services. I provide individual therapy for adults, and have particular expertise in areas of anxiety, depression, grief and loss, as well as chronic pain.

I also have specialized education and training which enables me to be proficient in conducting forensic psychological evaluations

I have been a psychologist for over 20 years, first as a staff psychologist at the University of NE Medical Center, then in private practice. The work I do is generally insight-oriented, meaning I want to understand the factors underlying a behavior before attempting to change it. I am particularly interested in patterns, and how prior relational learning often repeats in the present. I think therapy should be a place of safety where people can examine prior learning about self and others in order to modify assumptions, expectations, and behavior. This kind of work decreases depression and anxiety, and improves relationships.
