Throughout almost 30 years as a clinical psychologist, I've been impressed that the emotional suffering affecting us all, at times, has such universal causes. Insecurities and shame connected to childhood experiences over which we've had no control can take root, damaging self-esteem and emerging in symptoms of depression, anxiety and self-destructive behavior patterns. Even without overwhelming childhood stressors, feelings of inadequacy, and once self-protective, now limiting "chains" of feeling/thinking/reacting can interfere with realizing dreams, weathering losses and meeting new life challenges in the areas of love and work.
Using a collaborative, practical approach, I specialize in the treatment of depression, anxiety disorders, couple problems, parenting concerns (early childhood and adolescence), eating disorders, ACOA issues and the more general impact of childhood stressors on adult development. I work with adults of all ages, adolescents and very young children/parents.
I feel privileged to work with people from diverse backgrounds. I hope to provide a warm, collaborative professional relationship in which the process of talking together about troublesome feelings and experiences, fears and wishes leads to new habits of self-understanding/acceptance, new behavioral and problem-solving skills.
