The focus of my work as a clinical psychologist for over 27 yrs has been to actively engage with my clients to help them develop a feeling of personal competency and positive self-worth, and an ability to deeply understand where they have been, where they are now, and where they want to go. I strive to provide a safe and nurturing relationship so each person can explore and expand their own creativity in resolving emotional conflicts and difficulties, understanding problems in couple, family, friendship and workplace relationships, making important life decisions and coping with issues of aging.

Each person is on a unique life journey. I look forward to learning where you are on your journey and how I can help you create the life you desire. It is not about dwelling on the past but about using life lessons to move forward in a positive way. Even our most difficult life experiences bring us wisdom, character and integrity. If you are at a low point on your journey, therapy provides an opportunity to sort through the complexities, decrease the feeling of being overwhelmed and make real progress on your current life challenges.

When you seek out a therapist, you are entrusting someone you've never met with the well being of you and your family, so it's important that you learn more about me as you make your decision. While my therapeutic approach is typically positive and fun, I take client care seriously as I support children, adolescents and families on their journey toward achieving their goals. I enjoy collaborating with individuals and families to help uncover strengths and improve relationships while promoting positive communication skills and improved coping skills that can be easily transitioned from the our sessions into everyday life.

Maybe you constantly push snooze on your alarm because you can't feel excited to be alive. Or, anxiety has you on edge, as if you've been drinking 50 cups of coffee. Perhaps you're struggling in relationships: either you're too clingy or too distant. Getting out of painful cycles can seem as impossible as breathing underwater. No one person is an expert on being well. Even so, our hearts were designed to heal. In tiny, baby steps, helping you develop sensed comfort and safety can make all the difference to well being.

Anxiety, depression, relationship issues, loss of employment, and countless other challenges can lead to loss of direction and loss of hope. Maybe you feel stuck by your present or your past. I've been there too. When the cloud of struggle keeps you from moving forward, it is important to share your story. You were uniquely created, and your response to the world is yours alone. Sharing your story takes courage, but on the other side is healing, wholeness and your fullest life.

Your anxieties and worries are controlling too much of your life. That anxious inner voice won’t quiet down, and it’s just so convincing - you're frustrated that you listen to it, but you're scared not to. I mean, what if you ignore it and your worst fears come true? You know it’s irrational, but your anxiety just won’t let your brain believe the truth. You overthink so many things, and your inner dialog is exhausting you.

"We don’t have to do it all alone. We were never meant to.” Life just hurts sometimes as we all know. The greatest hurts happen in the context of relationships- whether that is the relationship with your parents, your children, your partner, your co-workers, or your friends. When we hurt, we all think & behave in different ways.Consider yourself: Do you isolate or find yourself stuck in your thoughts? Do you become angry and aggressive and push others away? Do you “numb out” and find yourself seeking experiences to help you feel numb? Do you find yourself doing all these? Whichever of these we choose, we often end up feeling alone.

Oftentimes, we spend so much energy trying to live up to roles, ideals, and expectations that we forget who we really are. Or perhaps, we never really had a chance to define our identity in the first place because it was given to us by other people, society or work expectations, or religious demands. These experiences can lead to depression and anxiety, conflict, burnout and exhaustion. At some point, there comes a reckoning when we can no longer continue this way. We need to take time to get in touch with who we really are, and let our authentic selves guide our life decisions, rather than others.
