In life, we strive to keep our balance and sometimes the struggle can be overwhelming. We might feel stuck, depressed, anxious, or angry. While these emotions can be difficult, they also provide us with opportunities for introspection and to recognize the strengths that lie within us. My approach is integral with emphasis on psychodynamics, schemas and I use mindfulness based techniques. In therapy with me, we will be looking at all domains including psychosocial, physical, interpersonal and spiritual.

Teens, young
adults
and families face amplified stress in all realms of their lives today and meeting the demands of academics, social relationships and family closeness can become overwhelming. As a parent, watching your children struggle presents a persistent source of pain. As a child or teen, the struggles erode self-confidence and may provoke anxiety, depression and emotional or behavioral dis-regulation. Partnering with a therapist to scaffold your child's strengths and provide new tools to overcome their challenges is the goal of therapy. Finding practical strategies and a sense of balance is attainable.
