Understanding yourself, your personality structure, and the world around you is a great asset. It allows you to clearly articulate your values and to set a life-course oriented toward what brings you meaning and fulfillment. Often, clinical symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and personality difficulties can obscure a clear vision of our ideal path. Clinical psychology uses the scientific understanding of behavior and mental health difficulties as the basis for strategic guidance in helping you overcome clinical and life issues.

While I am primarily a solution and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapist, I feel that the driving change that can be implemented in any client's life starts with them. It is the therapist’s job to aid clients in realizing their own potential, but that starts with the therapist demonstrating openness, caring and trustworthiness, and those things help the client realize that their thoughts, feelings and behaviors are all linked and need to be used simultaneously to implement real change.

I often come into contact with people that have never felt comfortable expressing their emotions or in asking for help. If you are struggling with a specific problem or if you just need a safe space to open up, then you've come to the right place. I have worked in many different settings (intensive residential, day treatment, crisis intervention, court systems, and outpatient) and with varying ages of clients, from young children to post retirement adults.

Forensic Psychology Therapists
How does forensic psychology work?
Forensic psychology works by providing those in the legal system with expert information about psychology and behavior that they wouldn’t otherwise have. Forensic psychologists do this through a range of services—conducting psychological assessments for court cases, assisting police officers with investigations, providing expert opinion, helping with mediation, and providing mental health care to victims or perpetrators of crimes.
Can a forensic psychologist help with child custody cases?
Yes. In the event that it’s needed, an attorney or judge may appoint a forensic psychologist to provide an assessment and recommendation. This process involves multiple interviews with the child, the parent (or parents), and sometimes others. The psychologist assesses the parent’s mental health, strengths and weaknesses, and parenting practices to understand what’s in the child’s best interest. They then complete a report with recommendations based on their assessment.
Do forensic psychologists help solve crimes?
In some cases they do. For example, criminal profiling involves collaborating with law enforcement officers to construct a profile of a perpetrator based on psychology, personality, and behavior as suggested by the crime in order to focus the investigation. They may also offer expert input on subjects related to a case such as deception, false confessions, and the reliability of testimony based on eyewitness accounts.
How long do people typically work with a forensic psychologist?
The length of time an individual works with a forensic psychologist depends on the relevant service. For example, if a forensic psychologist is conducting a psychological assessment for a court case, this may take one to two sessions to complete (although they can be more extensive). If the forensic psychologist is providing therapy to someone accused or convicted of a crime, treatment may last for several months or more.
