I am a Licensed Psychologist who works with individuals, couples, and families. My therapy clients range from ages 4 to 80 and I see a variety of treatment issues including, but not limited to, behavior problems, ADHD, learning disability, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder , relationship concerns, and life adjustment. My philosophy is that the therapy session belongs to the client, and everyone's needs are different. Therefore, I tailor my approach to each individual client. I aim to provide emotional support as well as teach tactics and strategies to help my clients reach beyond their comfort zone to accomplish their goals.

My personal mission statement is for each client to reach his or her individualized recovery goals to live a more fulfilled life. I have experience working with adult women, adult men, couples, under 18 kids/teenagers, elderly, LGBTQ+, and co-occurring diagnoses. I have immense experience with diagnoses such as Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder , Schizoaffective Disorder, and Personality Disorders. I also have experience working with diagnoses such as autism, ADHD, and OCD. I work with BFRB behaviors like nail biting, skin picking, and hair pulling. I want to help people feel empowered to reach their individualized goals.

I work with children 13 or over through adolescence, and adults of all ages.

Whether you are well versed with therapy and are ready to dive in again or you are cautiously considering therapy for the first time, I am committed to helping you identify and remove the obstacles of trauma, depression, anxiety, addiction, bipolar disorder , sleep disorders, difficult transitions, relationship issues, insecurity, problematic sexual behaviors, self-injurious behavior or acculturation stressors out of your way so you can get back to your life or maybe even feel alive for the first time.

Just as you visit physicians for preventive care, you can meet with a psychologist to address issues before they become problematic. This proactive approach encourages the development of psychological health. People are in good psychological health when they make good decisions, manage stress well, communicate effectively, have healthy relationships, and take good care of themselves emotionally and physically. Let me work with you to establish and maintain your optimal psychological health. We can do that through the use of therapy and/or psychological testing, as I specialize in both forms of treatment.

As a Naturopathic Doctor, I help women with mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, bipolar and ADHD balance their hormones and nutrition to improve their mental health. Specializing in Anxiety Depression, PMS, Perimenopause, and Menopause. Have you suddenly become anxious or depressed with Perimenopause or Menopause? Hormononal changes with age can impact your mood. When women are generally happy in the first half of their cycle and then angry or crying in the second half, then they need hormone testing as there is likely a hormone imbalance going on that can be addressed with Naturopathic Medicine.

I have been in practice since 1997 and have experience in many areas from inpatient hospitalizations, emergency room discharges, to individual/group settings. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address anxiety and depression. I believe it is the relationship with the patient and therapist which are significant to build trust and in turn facilitate change. It is important to have a treatment plan to set goals to learn healthy coping skills to address negative thought patterns. The recent years have brought such change in how we work, attend school, have relationships, and work through adversity. Therapy is key.

My style, similar to my personality, can be described as adventurous and holistic. I believe that healing and wellness is a journey that encompasses multiple parts. I use a variety of techniques and incorporate experiences from everyday life and the surrounding environment to help you experience the journey you believe is best for you. My mission is to empower clients by promoting their mental health, psychological wellness, and growth by honoring their diversity and understanding their concerns through multiple lenses.

My life experiences have led me to the helping profession where I maintain a strategy with meeting people where they are in their exploration to discover or restore their quality of life. My methods and technique are to assist you with navigating and resolving conflicts where you can enhance your abilities for a fresh perspective and a renewed outlook. We all maintain the ability to create our own positive and negative emotions with how we interpret our lives, so let's design your plan together where you will become more confident with overcoming the challenges of life.

I know how hard it is to find an ally or someone to trust. As a therapist, my biggest asset is that I've been there, and I can lead people through the process that has transformed me. Whether it's feeling capable at school or at work, having confidence with friends and partners, or realizing that not everyone has had to dodge the same number of curve balls that you have, developing new patterns is both simple and one of the hardest things we can try to do. My method is designed to support the brain in bringing our inner wisdom to the things you, your family, or children really want to change.

Finding the right fit can always be challenging. I look for helpful solutions to difficult problems. My clients look for someone who will tell them what is going on in their life and how to change and how it can benefit their life. I focus on the solution by delving into the problem, sometimes it may be difficult but that is why I am here to explain why it could be of the most benefit to you. Primarily, my goal is to help you find the best solution to your difficulties.

Thank you so much for looking into help for yourself or a loved one. My goal is to support every client in their pursuit of any healthy goal or change they wish to achieve. Every person deserves to live a fulfilled life (whatever that means to you), but anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief/loss, etc sometimes make that life seem unobtainable. I believe that with consistent and nonjudgmental support, every person can overcome those obstacles to obtain the life they deserve. *Online booking available by clicking WEBSITE button* Please reach out. I'd love to help anyway I can.

It is my belief that counseling is one of the most overlooked and underutilized tools to finding healing from life and gaining a clearer picture of our true selves. Having personally overcome loss and tragedy to get here, I have experienced first-hand how trained professionals can help us find our ways past such obstacles. I have worked for years as a speech therapist specializing in helping children with disabilities and different abilities to master the skills necessary to succeed. I have also served as a missionary to Kenya, and I continue to work with the disadvantaged both locally and abroad.

Psychotherapy is a partnership between the therapist and the client. The client sets the agenda, the therapist provides methods and together they discuss and explore alternatives to help the client achieve a more effective approach to life. Like any sort of partnership, the success or failure depends upon mutual effort. I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2002 and I love my work.

My passion includes helping with issues related to LGBTQ+, marital and premarital, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, abuse and depression in all age groups. I also work with those suffering from eating disorders, dissociative disorders, impulse control, and personality, and thinking disorders. I enjoy helping clients learn coping skills, how to deal with school or work stress, and improving peer and intimate relationships. So whether you need life coaching, self-esteem building, guidance through life transitions or just a friendly face on your side, I’d love to meet you and help with your next breakthrough!

Life with its transitions can be stressful and overwhelming. Even positive changes trigger distress. On this challenging path I offer my extensive training and experience to provide guidance helping you overcome obstacles to feeling better, to increase your curiosity and exploration of your self-growth, to understand yourself deeply, your relationship concerns; to make possible your working through the difficult situation. I have been successfully working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. Together we identify long or short-term life difficulties such as helplessness, low self-esteem, relationship problems; we work them through, and increase satisfaction and meaning of life.

Perception is reality and even a tiny shift in our perception can change our entire outlook on life.
