Cognitive behavioral therapy, clinical hypnosis,
mindfulness
, and positive psychology are all treatment methods supported by evidenced-based research.
Experience, experience, experience. As a psychologist with over 35 years serving adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families, I understand that "well begun is half done" which means that respecting each individual's unique starting point in therapy is essential. I have a distinct health orientation based in science which has repeatedly proven that most emotional distress is ultimately stress-related. Therefore, emotional balance and well-being is inherently available to almost anyone. Ultimately, experience has shown that quality emotional work pays off.

Welcome. I believe every individual possesses the skills and abilities to experience contentment through a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Unfortunately, life doesn't always work out the way we hoped or planned. Sometimes, unresolved issues resurface and continue to repeat an old narrative of negative self-talk or behavior that prevents living a life fulfilled. Moments like these can feel lonely and powerless, but you don't have to face them alone. I help many of my clients to address unresolved trauma, to develop coping skills for managing reactions related to anger and anxiety, and to improve communication and relationship skills.

As a therapist, I want to be a flashlight that can guide you through. It takes courage to reach out for help, and doing so shows you are ready to find your way back- or to a new, better place! I meet my clients with understanding, non-judgment, and collaboration. Whether it's depression, anxiety, relationship issues, or life transitions- you deserve to find peace, and I look forward to helping you meet your full potential and reach achievable goals.

Sessions combine talking, emotional and social skill building, and
mindfulness
exercises.
My clients desire to appear confident and in control, but deep down they are silently struggling to keep it together. They may be fed up with being everyone's "rock", feeling riddled with frustration and anxiety, or wondering who they are outside of all the "hats" being worn. They may not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. One thing is for sure: they're ready for relief. They come ready to release the things that they've been holding in. They're ready to unhook from the cycle of burnout, numb out, repeat. Most of all, they're ready to step into an authentic relationship with themselves, life & those around them.
