You can take charge of whatever transition or pain you are now facing -- whether you struggle with leadership in the Board room or with balancing parenting and child rearing.
I help you manage stress by getting to the heart of your "unfinished business." A client distilled our therapy into 1. increase self awareness and 2. slow down. I share my long form mantra with you: The deeper your well of fear, the less well you hear and the more pain you bear. May I nudge you into being a more compassionate listener to yourself and others?

If you are a parent and your preschool or elementary age child is having difficulties with impulsivity, peer relations, or behavior problems, we can work together to get you child back on track.
Deciding to talk with a therapist about your problems is a courageous step to take especially when you may not feel at your best. It is especially difficult when you've tried numerous times to figure out what gets in the way, yet you haven't changed. Together, we can explore the issues so that you obtain what you truly want for yourself. The approach I use is compassionate, warm, and designed especially for you. You will emerge feeling more confident, happier, and more fulfilled. I have 25 years of experience to draw from to help you enliven and enrich your life.

I work with a wide range of people from young adults to elders to new parents struggling with postpartum depression or unresolved trauma.
I provide client-centered psychotherapy that emphasizes meaningful change and builds resilience. Effective psychotherapy creates change on many levels--alleviation of symptoms, a deeper understanding of one's self and more satisfying relationships. I am dedicated to creating a collaborative and supportive environment unique to your needs and goals. I also provide neuropsychological evaluations to all age ranges and all areas of functioning (learning, memory, behavior, executive function). Similarly to my psychotherapy practice, I cultivate a collaborative stance when providing neuropsychological evaluations in order to make the evaluation as thorough and useful as possible.

Have you found peace yet? “The only way out is in.” Along with alleviating "symptoms", my approach is most effective for individuals who are seeking a deeper understanding of underlying causes and who strive for personal growth. Together, we explore the root of current feelings that led things astray. We can analyze more in-depth of emotional suffering, gain insight into self-awareness, build resilience, and develop better coping mechanisms and secure attachment. Doing so empowers us to reach emotional maturity and enable more fulfilling relationships.
