I am a Licensed Psychologist who has spent the last 30 years helping people transform their lives. Using a multi-faceted approach, therapy is tailored to the needs of the person or family, in order to bring the most meaningful and lasting change. I offer support, compassion, practical techniques, and persistence in my work – along with a good dose of creativity and life wisdom. In life, there are times when we feel strong, and other times when we feel broken. Psychotherapy is an interesting process, because the point of entry can happen at either time and be successful. No matter what, it takes courage to start the process.
I specialize in therapy with teens and young adults aged 12-25, the parenting of young children, and couples and family therapy. I work with adults with more chronic mental illness, or struggling with childhood trauma. I also have an expertise in diagnostic assessment and testing; f you are searching for answers to your symptoms, I can help you.
I am so glad you are here. Perhaps you have never been in therapy before. Perhaps you have and had a good experience. Perhaps you have and had a hard experience. No matter what, I am excited to partner with you. Together we can help you become better. Please feel free to reach out to me for a consultation. I look forward to hearing from you!
