"I am a licensed psychologist. I specialize in working with adults. My practice is partially based on the contemporary research in the areas of development, attachment, neuropsychology, and psychoanalysis. This research indicates that a therapeutic relationship can help restructure a person's internal emotional world and their cognitive functioning. This restructuring allows individuals to engage in more genuine and intimate relationships with others and to see themselves differently. It helps them be more effective in school and at work. I use a compassionate, practical, relational, and researched approach to help clients achieve meaningful change."

"It is common for people to seek therapy when they are going through a major life transition (birth of a first child, starting college, new job) that requires them to adjust and change in uncomfortable ways. Change requires us to take a step out of our comfort zones and often we resist this step. However, many people do not realize that it is resistance to change that actually causes anxiety and depression. In therapy, I help people develop the courage to change so that can find their hidden resources, grow and discover new maps for new territories."
