I have been practicing as a licensed psychotherapist since 1983. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and couples. I provide an understanding, caring and empathic environment to help you gain a better understanding of yourself and your circumstances. I utilize traditional “talk therapy,” which focuses on clarifying the nature of the problems. I help you to understand how your life-history contributes to your current situation, and to recognize and utilize your strengths in order to change negative patterns of thinking, behaving, and communicating.

Congratulations on your first step of wanting to transform your life. Therapy can be scary, but it doesn’t have to be. I am here to help you overcome your fear of telling your story while helping you navigate your feelings. By emphasizing transparency and trust with each client, I’ve had great success in creating a safe space to share empathy, a sense of belonging, humor, and, most importantly, effective results. I believe in the importance of addressing one’s challenges by taking into account the whole person, their cultural identity, as well as recent and past life experiences that have led them to seek help. Let me help you heal!

I work with Codependency and ACA issues and their application to the client's personal relationships and mental state of mind. My goal is to improve your overall relationships at work and in your personal life. I work from a Christian frame of reference (Biola Univ./Thru the Bible Radio) emphasizing the need for God in your life as the source of strength, comfort and in understanding behavior and symptoms. I utilize 12 Step Work and embrace this method of recovery. Establishing your goals and outcomes is essential to making your time and money count for significant changes in life.

Our team of therapists bring years of therapy experience. We work with children, adolescents, adults, and families who are Deaf or come from Deaf families (includes hearing family/friends who sign).

You're here, and it's not easy. Life's complexities have thrown you into a whirlwind of challenges – maybe it's the echoes of past trauma, the persistent tug of anxiety or depression, or perhaps it's the weight of expectations that feel impossible to carry. Originally from Austria, a former professional triathlete, and now doctoral student in MFT, I know firsthand the pressures of performance and the mental strains that come with it, I understand the delicate balance between physical prowess and mental resilience. If you are someone yearning for clarity and healing, I'm here to be your compass on this journey.

* CURRENTLY SEEING PATIENTS VIA TELEHEALTH* Life gets difficult sometimes. Being able to overcome challenges, cope with mistakes, and process past events is crucial to developing the strength to endure the future. Working with each individual based on their abilities, needs, and goals creates a personalized approach to therapy. Every person has the strength, knowledge, and ability to achieve or overcome anything that is causing them to feel "stuck" in life. Working together we will pull these qualities out and implement them within your life. All you have to do, is decide you're ready to take that first step.
