My ability to connect with and assist individuals is an accumulation of my professional education, life experiences and interest in people. I hold a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology as well as licensed as a Marriage, Family Therapist. I spent 22 years as a Physician Assistant in Family Practice and Industrial Medicine giving me a well rounded medical and psychological approach to therapy. I find that my clients solve their problems, heal their wounds and find direction under my care, which has given me a great sense of satisfaction over the last 20+ years.
My methods include a Family Systems and Cognitive Behavioral approach as well as Brief Therapy and Solution-Orientated Therapy. I believe in an individual approach best meeting the needs of my clients.
I am an avid traveler, which has broadened my views to other cultures and living styles. I feel extremely comfortable in dealing with problems and situations from our multicultural population. I have evening office hours to accomodate those individuals with schedules that are not convienent during the day.
