Welcome. Do you feel stuck or overwhelmed? Do you have trouble expressing your needs? Do you put a lot of pressure on yourself, and feel anxious about not meeting your expectations? Do you feel uncertain about how to manage feelings of distress? I am a psychologist that can help guide you toward relief. I aim to help individuals understand their concerns, strengths, and help them identify the tools necessary to manage distress, push through challenges, and understand how to become the best version of themselves.
I specialize in concerns related to relationships, women's concerns, anxiety, depression, stress, and depression. I use both psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral techniques to address situational and emotional barriers that prevent you from moving forward.
I have a particular interest in working with women as they navigate life transitions, relationship concerns, parenting stress, and multifaceted work/family responsibilities. I also have expertise in treating anxiety, depression, and reproductive-related mood disorders. For Behavioral Health Resources & Blog, please visit www.watermelonjoy.com.
