I have been a psychologist for over 50 years. I earned a B.A. in psychology from Northwestern University in 1967 and a Ph.D. in clinical psychology at the University of Colorado in 1972. I taught, conducted research and treated patients at Vanderbilt University, where I collaborated with Dr. Hans Strupp, a pioneer in the study of the effectiveness of psychotherapy. I published over 100 scientific articles on the process and outcome of therapy and the influence of sex and race biases in diagnosis and treatment.

I am humbled as I grow both personally and professionally while learning the depth of the human condition. We are all going through something. I enjoy treating couples and adult individuals that are wanting to deepen their inner awareness and have an expressed desire to connect further within their intimate relationships. The couple relationship, the way in which we emotionally connect, express ourselves, and grow, is one of the hardest but most rewarding things someone can commit to. Being vulnerable enough to allow both yourself and others to love you is hard, but also the birthplace of fulfillment, compassion, and empathy.

I have spent the past seven years supporting children and families in developing healthy and positive relationships with one another. I find families thrive once given the skills they are undoubtedly searching for. I attended CSU Sacramento for my Bachelors of Science in Speech Pathology and later my Master of Science degree in Marriage, Family and Child Counseling. I obtained my license in June of 2016 after completing the required 3,000 hours. I work individually with children of all ages and their families in order to ensure that the whole family obtains the skills necessary to grow and succeed.

Sometimes life challenges leave you overwhelmed and you do not know what to do. Seeking counseling can be difficult and it is often hard to take the first step. I offer a safe and supportive environment to work with you on making the changes to improve your life. I am committed to providing effective and non-judgemental services to the individuals and families I work with. Working with children who have experienced traumatic life experiences is an area that I have many years of experience. Helping these children build trusting relationships with others is very important to me.

Life can change in an instant. What was once predictable, safe, and familiar is gone and we are left with the unknown. Life transitions, both big and small, require support. Some are easily manageable while others cause us to forget who we once were. In my practice I focus on working together to again find equilibrium. Sometimes we can't be who we once were but it absolutely does not mean we cannot discover who we are now or who we want to be in the future.

Glad you're here. You may not be in the best mood, relationship, or situation, and you might be trying to help a loved one find a therapist; whatever it is - you are in the right place. My theoretical approach is always client-centered with an ecclectic treatment approach pulling from Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Gestalt, and Brainspotting therapies. I love helping people willing to explore hard things - who've had trauma - who are ready for different and want to make the most of it - who understand the importance of being true to yourself while honoring life choices for others - with strength.

I believe that when individuals are ready to receive help, they will benefit greatly. Those I serve have sought assistance because they seek to move beyond their struggle, not because they had been asked to do so. This is not to say that those who have been encouraged haven't benefited as well. The approaches used allow me to serve those who are experiencing stress, anxiety or trauma. I also assist those who are ready to find their life's purpose but feel that they need the extra support in meeting this goal.
