Accepting new clients! I specialize in ADHD, anxiety, and depression, and I work with children, teens, and adults who want clarity, support, and real tools that make life easier. I have 30 + years of experience including 10 years as Chief Psychologist and Chair of the diagnostic team at a large community mental health clinic. My style is steady, thoughtful, and down-to-earth. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just ready for a fresh start, I offer a space where you can be understood and supported. In-person sessions are available by request.
In our work together, expect a collaborative, practical approach grounded in cognitive-behavioral techniques. I draw on many years of clinical experience to help you understand patterns, build coping skills, and move toward meaningful change.
If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be glad to talk about what you’re facing and how we can work together. Reaching out is often the hardest part, but you don’t have to navigate things alone. Feel free to contact me to schedule your first appointment or ask any questions. I’m here to help you begin your path forward.
