People come to me for many reasons. For some, they are overall doing well in their life, but feel that there's something going on inside that's keeping them from reaching their full potential and finding true happiness and fulfillment. Others are actively experiencing challenges in their life and are open to receiving support, while still others are in real pain, and are looking for relief and help with that.

Starting therapy with a psychologist, whether it's your first or your latest time, can be a daunting task. Inviting the right psychologist to help you can be even more difficult. You may be burdened by anxiety, sadness, frustration, anger, or confusion. You may want change, but aren't sure how to achieve it. I have committed my professional life to helping clients heal, hope and grow in a way that is most specific and helpful to them when they need it. Together we will identify life patterns, set goals, and develop skills so you can thrive on your own.

People seek therapy for a variety of reasons: work and relationships, stress, death of loved ones, feeling lonely, isolated and stuck. They may be overwhelmed by the cumulative effect of all the above or other issues that need attention: traumas, grade school bullying, neglect or feelings of unfulfilled potential. Sometimes anger, anxiety and depression are the easiest way to express the complexity of our emotional world. But there's more to life than anger, anxiety or depression. Our work will explore the human experience, full of all its complexities, with particular attention on you in the here and now.

I feel that the ideal client for me is someone who is currently working on his/her inner awareness and how this then affects his/her life externally. This can be calmly working on life issues or the anxiety that can come when faced with existential issues of mortality (their own or a loved one's), such as with terminal illnesses or the important issue of "Who am I"?

In a world of uncertainty we are faced with conflict everyday. I work with clients who need direction and focus in their day to day problems as well as looking at long term solutions to current conditions. Most of my clients are aware of the challenges they face when they begin psychotherapy but are awakened to the depth of who they are and how they participate in their own lives.

Begin Care- As a clinical psychologist I help people build awareness and manage their behaviors in order to experience healthy and fulfilling lives. I start with an evaluation then adapt my methods to a client’s need, urgency and focus. In each case, I create a plan and give and request feedback about the therapy and progress made. I offer a confidential and secure measurement-based care tool for journaling and logging symptoms, functioning and progress. I find a pace that best fits the client, work in a friendly and focused way and explain complex issues with straightforward language.

Many people experience a deep sense of longing often described as a feeling of emptiness. What we use to fix or fill that emptiness can begin addictive processes like alcoholism, love addiction, and codependency. My approach is to meet that longing with compassion, understanding and love. Often the problem that causes us discomfort is an old way of coping that a part of us believes we need. Together we find the meaning that is generating or keeping the presenting symptom or problem in place and then move to swiftly create positive lasting change.

Depression, anxiety, trauma, and other negative influences can foster doubt and isolation. Fears usurp our natural capacity for joy. Life transitions are challenging and affect entire families. Don't go it alone. Psychotherapy can help evoke wholeness and health, renew relationships and perspective. Be the person you were born to be. Know yourself and make an informed change.
