Welcome. I am a Clinical Psychologist who approaches counseling as a natural occurrence existing within contemporary life. Sometimes, circumstances can become overwhelming when old tools are not up to the task, or there simply are no tools. I travel respectfully through evolving lives with compassion and humor to address: relationship issues, pain, divorce, transitions, depression, sexual identity, PTSD, anxiety, grief, careers, food, addictions and substance abuse. Whether working short-term or longer, ongoing or intermittent, my clients learn to access their own internal and natural resources, revealing fresh insights that provide the clarity needed to move forward.

Do you worry all the time? Do worry, stress or fear interfere with your life? Are you your own harshest critic, never able to please yourself, feeling like you're never good enough? Is depression taking the joy out of your life? You might be feeling like you just can't take it anymore; like you just don't have the energy to try anymore.

It is so easy to neglect our own emotional health and healing. We take care of everything and everyone else before we think to care for ourselves. If, like so many of us, you are forgetting to care for yourself or you are struggling to sustain your resilience, it is time to turn your attention to your own well-being. These past few years have added to life's difficulties and have increased feelings of depression, anxiety, loneliness, and uncertainty. I am here to help and I do so much more than the traditional talk therapy.

I’ve always been asked what’s the thing you would do for free? This is it! Especially working with children.

I can not wait to talk to you.

There are many things that get in the way of people living more fulfilled lives. Depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, troubled relationships, trauma, and behavior problems can cause tremendous emotional pain for individuals, their families, and friends. As a fully licensed Clinical Psychologist I use my training, experience, empathy, and understanding of how the mind works to help create a safe, nonjudgmental space where a collaborative and therapeutic process can occur. The end result is often a fuller understanding of the origins of emotional distress and a new freedom from unsatisfying patterns of living.

Life can present you with all kinds of challenges and you do not need to face them alone. Aside from the treatment of mental illness, people attend therapy for many different reasons: to cope with a sudden loss or traumatic event, to learn how to better communicate in their relationships, to explore feelings following a divorce or another big life change, to manage work stress and more. Everyone’s story is different, and I am here to listen to yours. As a therapist, I strive to create a caring and accepting environment. I believe that everyone has the ability to improve their life, build resilience, and find happiness.
