My training for my doctorate was in child and family clinical practice and I obtained post-doctoral training in forensic psychology. I also received over 300 hour of training at the Neurosculpting Institute. In addition to my clinical and forensic practice, I have provided consultation services in such settings as Head Start, Federal Corrections, and Child Protection Services and for agencies serving the developmentally disabled. A large part of my practice has always included providing psychotherapy for children, adolescents, couples, and families. I have been married for over 30 years and have seven children.

My practice welcomes children (age 9 & up), adolescents, and adults to explore life issues and challenges, as well as existing strengths and assets, in a supportive & safe environment. Developing trust and building a positive relationship serves as a starting point; I then help my clients increase their capacity to ask themselves questions, challenge previous assumptions and patterns, understand their family/social environment and try out new thoughts and actions. Together, we walk the path of progress and change, taking steps towards becoming the best possible version of ourselves, as often as we can.

I enjoy working with clients who are motivated to look at their issues and be willing to change. I feel the therapeutic relationship is a collaborative effort conducted in a safe and caring environment. The relationship between the therapist and the client is as important in the healing process as any techniques that are used. I feel it is important to empower individuals to go out and live a rich and fulfilling life. I certainly believe that it is a privilege and an honor to participate in helping people heal through their life's most challenging times.

Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding-Kahlil Gibran. I believe our emotions are our greatest teachers, and I work with clients to understand and unpack their lessons in order to cultivate a relationship to healing that's individual, sustainable, and empowering. There are many painful emotions and experiences we'd rather avoid, but like us, emotions need to be witnessed, respected, seen and heard. I customize my treatment and my approach based on my client's individual needs. I work to earn your trust, understand your goals, and build an accountable, secure, and respectful relationship with you.

Stressors related to work, relationships, medical conditions and other key areas of life occur every single day, and sometimes they may become overwhelming and out of control. Most of the time, we are able to help ourselves out of these types of situations, but there are times when it is too challenging to handle alone. When that happens, we often find ourselves stuck and unable to react, or continue to use solutions that may not be the best for us. It can be very draining and demotivating, and spiraling out of control. We sometimes want someone to find a solution for us, while at other times, we just want someone to listen to us.

Life will sometimes inflict suffering, leading to unwelcome thoughts, emotions, actions, and decreased quality of life. I work with clients who have a myriad of concerns, but my primary client base consist of those struggling with mood disorders and depression, life transitions, burnout, anxiety, stress, and trauma. Clients come to me wanting more life satisfaction, peaceful resolution to past experiences, and to return sense of control and agency over their mind and body. Being alive means more than just existing, or pushing through pain. Even in the face of adversity, life can be beautiful and fulfilling.

Self discovery, personal growth and a clear idea of your life's purpose are what you will achieve during your sessions. You will leave your emotional pain behind and discover ways to fully and deeply participate in life. Depression, anxiety, feeling lost or any of our other struggles reflect that our lives are out of balance. Create the life you deserve. The answers are not complicated. The journey is fun. Sometimes hard. Always rewarding. For over 35 years I have helped my clients step into their power, live fully from their heart and embrace their true self as they experience all that life has to offer. Thank you.

If you're thinking about therapy, most likely this isn't the first time you've felt like life was hard but something brought it to a whole new level of difficulty. Maybe you’re feeling down, worried, frustrated or just "off". When we go through life-changes -- including those we experience later in life and when we live with a disability -- our identity changes and it can take some time and attention to catch up with ourselves. As a social worker, I provide a mix of therapy, education and advocacy to help people regain their grounded-ness and feel successful.

Alzheimer's Therapists

What are the first-line treatment options for Alzheimer’s disease?

The first-line treatment for Alzheimer’s disease is often medication, which may be prescribed based on the severity of the disease. These include cholinesterase inhibitors, memantine, or a combination of the two. Behavioral treatments can help people cope with emotional distress, such as anxiety or anger, and explore lifestyle changes related to housing, caregiving, sleep, and finances.

When to seek treatment for Alzheimer’s?

It’s best to seek treatment at the first signs of dementia. Early warning signs of Alzheimer’s include memory problems, such as forgetting appointments or directions, as well as trouble concentrating, paying attention, retrieving words, and carrying out daily household tasks. An early diagnosis can help people slow the progression of the disease with treatment and plan for the future in terms of housing, support, finances, and legality.

Are there specific medications to treat Alzheimer’s?

Medications approved by the FDA to manage symptoms of Alzheimer’s include galantamine, rivastigmine, and donepezil for mild to moderate Alzheimer’s, and memantine, donepezil, and the rivastigmine patch for moderate to severe Alzheimer’s. These drugs can help manage the disease, but no drug currently cures the disease. Medications recently approved by the FDA, such aducanumab and lecanemab may slow the disease course, but aspects of their effectiveness are still debated.

Are there natural treatments for Alzheimer’s?

Alzheimer’s disease cannot be cured via natural remedies (nor via medication), but some lifestyle habits can help forestall it or slow its progression. Lifestyle activities that can help prevent Alzheimer’s disease include regular exercise, a healthy, well-rounded diet, stimulating cognitive activity, time spent socializing, adequate sleep, and stress management as needed.
