Accepting new therapy clients for Fall 2024! I enjoy meeting with high school/college/graduate students and professionals who want to live life with authenticy, courage, and purpose and who are seeking ways to recharge and reconnect to themselves. Although experiences of life, including trauma, anxiety, or depression as well as changes or expansions of our responsibilities may impact how we think, feel, and behave these life experiences, while overwhelming at times, can also lead to the greatest growth, discovery, and reclaiming confidence and perhaps above all discovering that life is truly meaningful even while imperfect.
I offer psychological assessments for teens, college/graduate/professional students, and professionals to assess for ADHD, learning conditions, and performance concerns (e.g., high stakes-exams). Evaluations identify areas of strengths and weakness, clarify diagnoses, and provide comprehensive recommendations, as well as school and workplace accommodations.
My approach focuses on cultivating authentic, caring, and open experiences to develop better ability to connect more meaningfully within one's life and relationships. I blend an integrative healing philosophy with humanistic, interpersonal, and behavioral methods to further create a space in therapy for an individual to feel courageous, connected, and whole.
