Are you finding lifes challenges difficult? Transitions can be stressful and difficult to manage. I will provide a supportive and empathetic environment to help you achieve emotional well being and reach your goals.

The therapeutic relationship is one of the most important relationships we create. I believe that all individuals can effect change in their lives, and that my role as therapist is to empower my clients to lead more fulfilling and happier lives. Through a collaborative relationship, I help my clients envision the lives they want to lead and reach their goals in a safe, compassionate and supportive environment. I specialize in helping clients move through life transitions such as marriage, separation/divorce, changing lifestyles and family structures, illness, relationship conflict, career changes, retirement and grief and loss.

I am a dedicated and passionate therapist who is invested in helping my clients. My warm and caring demeanor is combined with open and honest feedback, which allows for the processing of thoughts and emotions in a safe, nonjudgmental and validating environment. I consider you to be the expert of your life and I serve as a collaborator and supportive guide in your personal and unique journey. My approach to therapy stems from the importance of increasing self-awareness, identifying unhealthy patterns, and developing an understanding of what is holding you back from achieving happiness, positive self-esteem, and success.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist, and I have worked for well over a decade with adolescents and their families with all levels of pathology, in a variety of treatment (and educational) settings. I also am specialized working with athletes of all ages, and also have completed countless assessments of collegiate athletes' mental and emotional makeup to aid in professional draft strategy. Lastly, I enjoy working with young adults and other millennial aged individuals who are attempting to establish themselves, whether financially, professionally, with new families, or all of the above.

The human experience is characterized by a blend of uncertainty and challenges that arise, demanding our attention and resilience. These challenges manifest in various forms, often triggering feelings of anxiety, sadness, and a sense of being lost and overwhelmed. However, what if amidst these struggles lies an opportunity for empowerment? What if we could reframe our perspective, viewing each day as an avenue for growth, learning, and self-discovery? By harnessing the power within our everyday difficulties, we have the potential to transform our mindset, cultivate resilience, and ultimately thrive amidst life's uncertainties.

Listening to the narrative of every person's life is fascinating to me. I am empathic, interactive and am a firm believer that good therapy brings results that make people feel more comfortable, empowered, and gives you the strength that is needed to grow. Therapy begins with identifying destructive themes that repeatedly arise, and interfere with one's life. I believe that therapy should be transformative, and provide a healing experience. I am particularly skilled in working with panic disorder/, depression, divorce conflict, and trauma, including sexual abuse.

My work is dedicated to helping you embrace who you are in order to live a fulfilling and balanced life. I focus on developing your ability to understand the powerful connection between your mind and body. This insight facilitates a path toward healing from current and past challenges. During the course of our work, I will help you develop your "Emotional Intelligence" (understanding of what motivates feelings and actions) and acquire the tools needed to overcome barriers blocking growth and change. Once you gain these coping skills, you will find yourself open to loving relationships, living in the present and creating a more fulfilling life.
