"I am a licensed clinical social worker who practices both individual and couples therapy. I have extensive experience working with client's from diverse backgrounds. My training as a social worker has given me the understanding of how both childhood and current life circumstances impact people. I work to assist client's in understanding how they deal with these problems. My goal is never to provide answers for people, but to help people to understand themselves so that they can function and operate independently of their conflicts and problems."

"Hi There! I help couples who want relationships they can actually enjoy. We live in a world of fabulously filtered families and carefully curated couples that can lead to #relationshipgoals overload. Have you found yourself one too many times crying instead of laughing at a post that hit too close to home. Maybe it’s the Superstar Students. Perhaps it’s Patty & Patrick Perfect who are wearing your last nerve. I get it. Its not that you don't have it together, it just seems that lately the days you *feel* you do are spreading further and further apart. Your talks with your partner aren't what they used to be. Something's off..."

"My ideal client is an individual interested in a professional that can assist them in being better, having healthy relationships, and developing skills that can enhance their life and those they encounter. We all have problems and I can help clients learn the skills to overcome any issue and have a healthier mind and life!"

"Making the decision to change can be hard. Actually taking the steps towards that change can be even harder and scarier. Sometimes, you know change is necessary but don't know where or how to begin. Sometimes, you just need the encouragement and support to move forward. I want to help you process your goals and find the right "tools" to make positive improvements. I will provide you a calm and supportive environment to discuss your concerns so we can strategize next steps and allow you a safe place to evaluate progress."

"I work with kids of all ages, parents, and families."

"Often times, how we feel about ourselves, others, and situations have a lot to do with the stories of our lives and problems that arise in social, cultural and political contexts. I collaborate with clients to create alternate stories that creatively solve their problems and increase their fulfillment in life. As a result, I am very committed to understanding and incorporating cultural aspects of the client's life into treatment. I view therapy as a collaborative experience where we select goals/objectives that will help you become the person you want to be or experience the relief you seek."

"My desire as a counselor is to provide a place of safety. Based on my own experience in therapy and my experience as a counselor, I’ve come to believe that people possess the strength and knowledge needed to bring about change and growth. But like most all people, we require safe relationships in order to be able to see and accept ourselves more fully. Too often we are suppressed by the expectations of our culture, family, and/or religious heritage, leaving us to feel like we are unacceptable. I would love to help provide a place where you could be completely who you are with acceptance and without a need to change you."

"I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families from a relational, trauma informed, attachment informed, developmental perspective. Trained in child psychotherapy, couples therapy and family therapy, I work to understand clients within the context of their primary and family relationships. I especially enjoy working with couples and families. I work to identify the emotional and interpersonal obstacles to further growth, and build on the strength and resilience of the individual, couple and family. .I have experience working with children and adolescents experiencing the full range of emotional, social and developmental difficulties."

"*SAME DAY, EVENING & WEEKEND OPENINGS. Need help, but find traditional approaches unappealing? I provide an integrative strategy informed by the latest research in neuroscience, environmental factors, & mindfulness. I specialize in anxiety, depression, & difficult relationships. I synthesize research from different fields to explain the myriad factors surrounding each individual's distress & focus on results. Beyond knowledge, so much in therapy is about the relationship: I'm here for you. My greatest pleasure is bringing success to my patients. Ready now? I get that. Phone answered until 10 p.m. & on weekends. Getting therapy should make you feel better, not add stress."

"You are tired of fighting, having to explain yourself, being disappointed, and grieving the life you planned as a child. Parenting is one of the HARDEST and most fulfilling experiences that one can have in this lifetime, but it can sometimes feel like a constant battle. If you toss in co-parenting with an ex-partner, trying to integrate a new partner into your "ready-made" family, and/or being a caregiver to a family member due to unfavorable circumstances, things get a lot more complicated. Being the child in these situations, can be even harder to navigate because everything can feel so unstable. All of it feels exhausting!"

"Have you experienced more than 20 days out of the month of sadness, anger, or anxiety? Life is hard work and you are tired. Typically you rely on your strengths. Don't worry your strengths are still there. I can help you see your strengths, appreciate your strengths and use your strengths. Growth, change, healing, resiliency and recovery are attainable. This is easier when there is a safe environment to practice new skills, share your story, and build trust. You can grow in intellect, spirit and emotion which builds resiliency. "

"As part of a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment, my service includes evaluation of multiple cognitive domains including memory, problem solving/reasoning, visual-spatial processing, language, basic motor skills, emotional status, and assessment of attention and academic functioning (ADHD, LD), as indicated. Findings from the neuropsychological evaluation are used to generate recommendations to assist in treatment planning across a variety of settings as well as suggesting compensatory strategies for any identified cognitive weaknesses and identifying resources for families. I offer timely and thorough evaluations, conduct individualized feedback with families, and provide a summary of the findings and recommendations."

"We all face times in our life where it seems we have been thrown a curve ball. We suddenly find ourselves in the midst of a personal crisis. Where do we go, and who can we turn to for help? It is these times, when professional counseling and therapy is helpful. My motto is, "When life hurts...healing helps." My ideal client is an individual, or family member who is seeking a skilled mental health professional. I provide a therapeutic environment for my client, that will assist you in navigating through the personal issues that you have been struggling with."

"You are going through life surviving but aren't really thriving. On the outside, people might not even notice anything is wrong. Inside, you're second guessing yourself & struggling to find balance. It's difficult to feel like you know who you are or how to be yourself around other people. These feelings may be affecting your relationships, school, parenting or career. Through our work together I will help you engage more fully in the present, & work towards the best version of yourself. It is hard work but can be done with gentle guidance. I'm trained in EMDR, CBT and EFT. "

"You love and cherish your child or teenager. And, you work hard to provide for their physical/emotional well-being because happy, healthy kids promote joyful families. But sometimes despite your best efforts, your child continues to struggle with behavioral problems, peer relationships, family changes, deficits in social/emotional development, aftermath of traumatic experiences, or mental health challenges. Many parents like you are tasked to find the necessary help and resources that their children require. My training and experience in issues related to trauma, mental health, and attachment position me well to serve the needs of your family."
