Do you feel anxious due to your work, family issues, low self-esteem, and relationship issues? I can especially help those with anxiety/panic attacks. I make it a priority to help clients with buried feelings who have trouble speaking on their emotions. Communicating emotionally is extremely important to promote well-rounded and mature adults. I will help you enhance your self-awareness around unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and build skills necessary to handle life more effectively and develop actionable steps to reach your goals.

At different times we experience unresolved situations that affect our sense of clarity, calm and balance. As a therapist and guide, together we will strive to remove those obstacles and restore hope and engagement. We can achieve this through developing goals and ways to cope that address those often unexpected and sometimes familiar patterns of living. My practice serves individual adults, children/teens, parents including parent and child therapy, and elders. My wish for all clients is to find a trustworthy therapist in me.

I utilize a client centered approach in working with adolescents and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, and life transitions.

At the risk of sounding cliche, my ideal client is you. I love to watch all of the different ways clients can become their perfect selves. Working with a variety of issues, needs, and goals is like a never-ending puzzle. I love to match solutions with clients, co-authoring happily-(or at least contentedly)-ever-afters. Children, adolescents, adults, couples, each has their own appeal and diversity keeps my practice vibrant.

Do you struggle with feeling stuck? Want to do better but can’t find the energy to make the necessary changes? Have trouble figuring out what those changes might be? Or do you need a safe space to express your personal struggles with someone other than those in your life, out of fear of judgement or biased opinions? I provide a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where you can find relief in talking about your struggles with someone that will help you work towards the things that are important to you.

I work with adults, teens and provide family therapy. My specialities include treating depression, anxiety, trauma, suicidal ideation, mother-daughter relational dynamics, mood disorders, self-identity, self-esteem, confidence and body positivity. In therapy, I integrate whole wellness and health and build upon your strengths. I work towards inspiring creativity within yourself as I believe everyone is the author of their own lives.

I believe anyone can live a meaningful and fulfilling life, and that we all can change and grow even in the toughest times. I help clients change problematic behaviors and thinking patterns to achieve wellness and growth. For over 20 years, I have worked with Adults, Couples, Teens/Children, and families from a diverse population. I have helped clients with anxiety, depression, personal/ work transitions, relationships, social-emotional issues, and trauma. Helping my clients to reach their fullest potential, and witnessing their growth is my greatest reward.

Life is a journey and sometimes it can be messy, challenging, and painful. During difficult times, everyone could use a helping hand and a supportive, compassionate space to process what they are going through. As a therapist, my goal is to help you navigate through those difficult times and the specific challenges you may be facing. I want to support you in gaining insight into your strengths and challenges, help you heal, and empower you to initiate changes to cultivate a more fulfilling life. I am especially passionate about working with youth and adults who are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, and bipolar disorder.

As a clinical psychologist, I have over 30 yrs experience helping clients work through life's difficult challenges. I work with parents and children to address developmental and behavioral difficulties and to find solutions to the unique challenges of adolescence. I often work with young adults to help them manage transitions into independence and adult responsibilities. With adults, I facilitate their work toward relief from symptoms generated by psychological conditions or from traumatic events in their past.

I have been fortunate enough to work with people of all ages, and it has taught me that when given the opportunity, each person is able to step into the best version of themselves even when their circumstances are difficult. At the core of our being, we all long to be connected, whether that is with others in relationships or with ourselves. My experience has allowed me to work predominantly with adults who have experienced depression, self-harm, anxiety, postpartum depression, relationship issues, work/life balance, adjustment disorders, and trauma (including various forms of abuse and violence).

The best predictor of success in therapy is the relationship built between the client and the therapist. I create an environment where you will experience unconditional acceptance and a safe place to share your thoughts and feelings. Over the course of therapy, you will feel more confident in yourself, your decisions and build healthy coping skills. For 15 years I have helped my clients cope with a variety of issues including: depression, anxiety, parenting, divorce, affairs, eating disorders, relationships, communication, grief and loss, setting appropriate boundaries, increased self-confidence and self-esteem.
