Hello! Thanks for taking time to get to know a little bit about me. I am a clinical health psychologist serving professionals and their families. I help folks with a variety of concerns like anxiety, stress, life transitions, depression, ADHD, substance use, and relationship problems, but also help people with medical concerns like insomnia, chronic pain, weight loss, coping with the stress illness, making behavior changes to help with chronic problems, and more. I have developed a specialty of working with high stress professionals in managing their health and wellbeing in demanding careers.
My goal is to offer scientifically supported best practices within a warm and supportive environment that allows for individuals to push themselves to make hard changes. I offer individual counseling and psychotherapy, group counseling, couples counseling, and a variety of psychological evaluations including ADHD, Memory, Presurgical Clearance, and more.
My commitment to our patients and clients is to work within an interdisciplinary team to get people what they need, including finding the right fit for a therapist. You can make an appointment online or by calling or emailing our office to set up an initial appointment to assess your needs, make a plan, and see if I am the right fit.
