I believe in promoting healing and healthy mind through effective psychotherapy. Life as magnificent as it is, comes with challenges that can overwhelm an individual to the point where his/her daily functioning is significantly impaired. Psychotherapy provides a means for managing and coping with issues that at some time or another interfere with daily functioning. My goal is to assist individuals with learning how to manage/cope with the challenges presented by life.

I work with adults and families surrounding difficulties with anxiety, depression, adult ADHD, and managing the stresses of college or work. I specialize in providing guidance to parents through transitions, your child's diagnosis, and managing the stress of parenting. I will work together with you, both as a guide and your team member, to help you set goals and work to meet those personal goals. I will help you to not only alleviate your symptoms as quickly as possible, but to understand the causes of your difficulties sufficiently so that you will less likely experience a re-emergence of symptoms as soon as therapy ends.

My practice is centered around helping people reconnect with their inherent goodness. So many of us walk around with a deep sense of unworthiness, a feeling that there's something wrong, finding ourselves in conflict with others, lacking purpose, and disconnected from our true selves. This is uncomfortable, painful even. In response to this discomfort, we develop all sorts of means to cope: drugs and alcohol, work, money, sex, video games, or TV. Or, we try to fix what’s “wrong” through perfectionism, achievement, therapy, or spirituality. We try to avoid or fix our insecurities out of fear, allowing them to grow.
