Are you often the one others rely on to keep the peace, solve the problems, and stay strong no matter what? If so, you know how heavy that role can feel. After years of putting others first and staying attuned to everyone else’s needs, it can be hard to know what you need. On the outside you might seem fine, but inside you may feel exhausted, weighed down by old hurts, or stretched thin. You deserve a space where you can take off the mask, feel deeply understood, and finally focus on you.

Life just seems to be harder for you than everyone else. You constantly wonder why it takes so much effort to do seemingly simple tasks - brush your teeth, wash dishes, finish laundry. By the end of the day you have nothing left. As much as you want friendships, they are hard and exhausting to keep up with. You try finding strategies that work but being consistent seems impossible. If you could just figure out how to make these things easier, life wouldn't be so stressful. The depression, anxiety, and constant guilt takes a toll on your mental health, but it doesn't seem to explain everything you are going through...

If life feels like a lot right now, whether for you or someone you love, you don’t have to carry it alone. The reasons for seeking therapy can be numerous anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, etc. Sometimes it helps to have an expert hold space to just let you breathe. Maybe you need help finding clarity about what’s next or real tools for change. My hope is that you can have a place that helps you make sense of what’s happening, get expert feedback on a path forward, and help (for you or your loved one) start feeling better, steadier, and more hopeful again.

Hello, hello, hello! My position as a psychotherapist is to help you become a better version of you, and if you'll let me, I can help you find out better what that could mean. As a therapist, it will never be my place to tell you what to do, how to think or how to feel. My role is to help you figure out what YOU want to do, how YOU think (and want to think) and how YOU feel (and how you WANT to feel). What YOU want for yourself is precisely what I want for you. My approach would be best described as laid back, fun-loving, incredibly warm, kind and validating. Think: Ted Lasso meets Luna Lovegood (from the Harry Potter series).

Entering therapy is not always easy, but it's an important step towards change. I believe therapy should be a process where my clients and I work as a team to identify strengths and learn new skills to increase their ability to cope with stress, anxiety, depression, and behavioral problems. I specialize in treating children and adolescents with mood and behavioral disorders. When working with children, I believe it's important to engage parents in the treatment and empower them be a coach and implement strategies discussed in therapy at home with their children.

Testing and Evaluation Therapists
What is a psychological evaluation?
A psychological evaluation is a test or assessment most commonly administered by a trained psychologist that is intended to be used in the diagnosis of specific psychological conditions, such as ADHD, mood disorders, personality disorders, dementia or Alzheimer's, and learning disabilities. Psychological evaluations can help inform future treatment decisions and help direct clients to professionals and resources that may be most helpful, such as potential therapy options or additional school supports.

Can psychological evaluations be done on individuals of any age group?
Psychological evaluations are conducted on individuals of all ages and can be beneficial to individuals across the lifespan. However, specific types of evaluations may be most frequently conducted on individuals of certain age groups. For instance, ADHD or learning disability testing is often conducted in children ages 4-12--the period of time when ADHD symptoms most commonly emerge. In contrast, cognitive functioning assessments, such as those conducted to diagnose dementia, are most commonly conducted in elderly individuals. Clients should ensure that the psychologist they are seeing has specific expertise in conducting evaluations in their age group to ensure they receive a correct diagnosis.

How long does a psychological evaluation take?
Psychological evaluations vary in length depending on the test being administered and the goals of the evaluation; however, most evaluations are 2-4 hours in length. Some evaluations may take as long as 8 hours but can often be spread across multiple days. In some cases, clients will also attend an intake session or interview, which can help the psychologist assess client functioning outside of the testing environment.

How should I prepare for a psychological test and evaluation?
Individuals do not need to prepare for psychological tests or evaluations in most cases, as they are intended to measure a client's baseline psychological status without test-specific preparation. However, clients may want to brainstorm a list of questions for their psychologist about any tests they are receiving prior to the assessment, including what potential outcomes may mean for what next steps the client should take.
