Everyone's journey in life is different, but invariably along the way we encounter some bumps in the road, or sometimes it seems they are more like mountains. Whatever has led you to seek help today, know that you are making a good decision by taking the first step toward finding a solution. My approach to therapy is individualized, with an emphasis on each person's unique needs and strengths. I believe the therapeutic relationship is one of the crucial elements to your success. It is through this collaboration that we can find solutions and restore balance to your life.
I hold a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults, families and couples. I also provide ADHD Evaluations, Evaluations of Gifted Learners, Evaluations for extended time on Standardized tests and Psycho-educational assessments for children through adults.
Whatever your starting point may be, we'll define together where you want to be in your life and the best way to get you there.
