Thank you for arriving here safely. If you are ready to schedule your first session, that is great! Acknowledging you are at a “stuck point” and taking action to improve your life takes courage. Just reach out to me - I look forward to getting to know you and working together toward your goals.
I am a licensed psychologist, teaching and practicing psychotherapy since 2007. I believe that each of us is striving to become healthier, happier, and more able to live fully, and that our life challenges (or “symptoms”) are expressions of this motivation toward growth. Thus, my therapy is strength-based and individualized to you.
I have experience and success helping people work through personal and relationship concerns, informed by training in evidence-based approaches including ACT, CBT, and Interpersonal Process. Additionally, I have special training in mindfulness and meditation and my therapeutic work draws upon the latest research in this area.
I listen closely to your unique life situation and experiences and, together, we move forward in a way that supports your unique development. I do my best to offer a warm and supportive atmosphere in which you can access your innate wisdom, creativity, and humor, identify and overcome obstacles, and make positive life changes
