I believe in all people’s innate capacity to heal. To me, all symptoms that we experience whether it be chronic pain, anxiety, depression, panic attacks, etc can be explained by trauma. Trauma does not have to be big events. Trauma can be if we are not attuned to emotionally as children or if our parents have their own unprocessed trauma—this sort of trauma often leads to deep seeded beliefs that we are unloveable and bad. Our healing comes from teaching our parts that we are loveable and accepted just as we are.

I believe that everyone has the right to feel healthy and energetic. Stress often interferes with this; it doesn't have to be that way. A warm, professional approach and a variety of bio-behavioral techniques can provide just the support necessary to help people be the very best they can be.

I am living testimonial to the effectivenss of the complementary therapeutic approach to health.

I will help you develop tools to navigate life more effectively through trying and uncertain times while also defining your wants and needs - no matter how big those desires might be!

I am a Clinical Psychologist & Licensed Acupuncturist providing Psychotherapy, Bio/Neurofeedback, Acupuncture, Oriental Medicine & Herbal Interventions. I work extensively with individuals suffering from stress-related mental and physical conditions (for example, headache, gastro-intestinal disorders, hypertension, insomnia, depression, anxiety, memory/concentration problems). Treatment involves examination of psychological/emotional issues as they are intertwined with one's physical/somatic self, helping individuals to regulate unhealthy emotional and physical responses. Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine may be utilized as an alternative or supplemental means of promoting MindBody balance. These modalities are also highly effective for optimal performance training, smoking cessation, weight reduction, etc.

My decision to become a therapist evolved as my values, my own understanding of the world & my place in it, broadened. It is this evolution that I work to facilitate for my patients as they seek to find their unique places in the world.

I try to account for both environmental & hereditary variables in the treatment paradigm using direct intervention & a mix of traditional psychodynamic & psychoanalytic techniques, including CBT & DBT elements.
