I take a whole body approach to health and illness with a focus on how the mind influences the body just as the body influences the mind. Anxiety, depression, and stress can impact health and exacerbate chronic pain, heart disease, insomnia, and other medical problems. However, addressing the emotional aspects of medical conditions can improve quality of life and physical health. Also, psychological principles can help enhance wellness and lead to lasting behavioral changes. As a health psychologist, I can help you emotionally cope with medical conditions, make healthy lifestyle choices, and learn skills to move forward with your life.

If you've found yourself struggling with life stresses such as fertility problems, chronic illness, marital discord, relationship infidelity, or even difficulty making major decisions, therapy is right for you. You may also be blissfully happy and seeking pre-marital counseling with a future spouse, therapy is right for you too! These incentives for counseling have one common thread, a desire to pinpoint areas where you are "stuck", guard against potential threats to your relationship harmony, improve your life, improve your relationship, and become the best version of yourself.

Do you feel you are losing control? Do you feel that nobody understands you? I am here to help. Do you have trouble communicating with your teen? Are you trying to find out how to always feel joy? I am here to help. I have my doctorate in clinical psychology with extensive experience. You can stop worrying by putting your trust in me and my expertise . Mind therapy is the exploration and expression of your innate creative self, rational self as well as environmental limitations placed on the self.

I work as a partner with my clients to gain or restore a healthy balance individually and within the context of their relationships. I work with the whole person from a humanistic and systems perspective. We do not live in a vacuum, therefore each and every person is connected to others somehow in relationship, whether that relationship is healthy, conflicted or estranged and whether that relationship is with family, friends or colleagues. There is great value in working with an unbiased professional to help identify patterns and ways of relating that are possibly holding us back.

"We change our behavior when the pain of staying the same becomes greater than the pain of changing. Consequences give us the pain that motivates us to change." ~H. Cloud. Change is always hard but often necessary and attainable with the appropriate guidance and tools. I enjoy working with a wide range of issues in adolescents, adults, and couples, and I have extensive experiences with these populations. I work best with clients who are self-motivated and seek therapy on their own so they are ready to apply themselves outside of therapy.

I specialize in working with adults and couples with a variety of presenting concerns, including depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. I have experience working with adult survivors of abuse as well as LGBTQ clients.

Sometimes something has gone awry in our life balance which can manifest into feelings of sadness, symptoms of anxiety, unmanageable stress, uncontrollable fear, and self-doubt.

I offer a safe and affirming space where together we will work through these challenges. I will provide you with tools that lead to self-discovery and creating a meaningful life.

Healthy relationships promote happiness, security, success, and even physical health! Moreover, healthy relationships lay the foundation for future relationships, so how you interact with your spouse and your child will impact your child's future relationships. I work with both families and couples on improving their relationships by building trust and open communication. Much of my work has been with families with children or teenagers.

I have extensive inpatient and outpatient experience in assisting adult and senior clients who have been diagnosed with mood disorders, anxiety, psychosis, and personality disorders. I also assist clients who are in crisis and/or dealing with stress, sadness, worry, grief/loss, caregiver burden, and unhealthy habits and behaviors. I also provide services to couples and families geared toward helping them develop skills and insight that will increase communication and problem solving skills. I view therapy as a means to highlight healthy and unhealthy thoughts and behaviors while providing a direction for clear and lasting change.

Do you feel heavy with despair, struggling each day to keep your head just above the darkness and dread? Does it take every ounce of energy to stay afloat? Or are you feeling overwhelmed by feelings of helplessness and hopelessness? Do you feel like you’re not being heard by your partner? Or not appreciated? Is there an issue surrounding a lack of faithfulness, money, being a parent, the in-laws, or work? Or maybe you’d both just love to connect on a deeper level? Do you want to better understand and cope with previous trauma? Are you feeling profound sadness after the death of a loved one? I deeply value, understand and listen.

It has never been more imperative that we take care of our mental health and wellness. There is so much to decompress from daily, that sometimes we find ourselves overwhelmed. Sometimes you want to find a therapist that will support you, and other times you may be looking for direction and challenge. During this time of the Pandemic and ongoing political and social unrest, consider caring for yourself, first. As you grow this work into consistent practice, you will find more gratitude and mindfulness even during difficult times. I look forward to serving you.

My office is a safe and accepting space for all individuals. I value the courage of people who are willing to show up and work on themselves. Individuals who find working with me helpful hope to gain a better understanding of themselves and how their feelings of safety and security shape their life experience, relationships, and choices. I have training in trauma-informed practices and multicultural counseling; however, I believe that the client is the expert on their life.

Trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles-and the symptoms that come with these-tend to impact so many aspects of our lives. It's when those symptoms go into overdrive that we begin to feel lost and isolated, and that ends up affecting how we are and how we act in the world. When our fears, secrets, and distress build up over time and we have no outlet to let them out and begin to face them, those feelings become overwhelming and eventually, leave us feeling isolated, fed up, anxious, and drained. You are not alone!

When you come to me for help we work as a team. I believe each individual brings his or her uniqueness to therapy. Each person also brings unique challenges, life situations, and most importantly personal strengths. In the therapy process, each person will work to clarify their own personal truth. In my practice, I strive to make sure I provide a safe and nurturing environment. I provide a place for each person to be heard and validated. I talk openly about the personal goals and therapy approach I will use. The timeline for the therapeutic process is based on each individual's particular needs.
