As a psychologist, I work with individuals to help them live their lives more fully and authentically. The core of my approach is establishing and maintaining a warm, nonjudgmental, collaborative, and supportive relationship with clients. I believe it's important to foster an atmosphere of mutual respect and safety where we can thoughtfully consider your experience. I'll aim to understand your difficulties and the ways in which those challenges impact your life. I believe that important relationships from the past shape how we think, feel, and behave in relation to others and ourselves in the present.

I primarily work with teens and adults struggling with ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, or Depression, and athletes facing performance anxiety or mental blocks. You may feel overwhelmed by emotions, have difficulty with focus, social interactions, or experience self-doubt. Athletes facing performance anxiety or mental blocks may be seeking ways to regain confidence. I provide a safe space to process thoughts, feelings, develop coping strategies, and work toward meaningful personal growth.

I strive to work closely with every client and family to help them identify their strengths and achieve success.
Choosing the right therapist can be a challenging decision, especially when they are working closely with you or your child. It’s important to find someone who listens to and understands your concerns while also being supportive and nurturing. I want to emphasize that I provide a safe environment where empathy, encouragement, and laughter are integral parts of the therapy process. Most importantly, I believe that building a strong relationship with each individual is essential for healing.

Welcome. I have learned that no one theory works for everyone. By utilizing different therapeutic approaches I help you achieve practical and lasting results. Together we can make the necessary connections in order for you to achieve a greater self-understanding. This understanding is not focused on good or bad, right or wrong but on the underlying reasons and beliefs that motivate your behavior. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve the current challenges in your life.

For example, I've worked with veterans, teenagers who are suicidal, middle-aged persons facing job/ family stresses, grieving older persons, couples in crisis, and those who've suffered in silence too long.
I deliver evidence-based interventions with compassion, genuineness, humor, empathy, and professionalism. You can’t surprise me and I won’t judge you. My goal is to help you heal and develop self-compassion with the skills you need to cope. Every individual is unique and I believe there is no “one size fits all” when it comes to psychological care because you are not your diagnosis. I will draw on your strengths to decrease distress, improve resilience, and work through barriers to experiencing whole-hearted well-being.

Are you or your child experiencing anxiety, disordered eating, obsessions/compulsions, or difficulty navigating the ups and downs of life? Finding a therapist is often a difficult step, and I would be glad to join you in that journey. My goal is to create a safe environment that empowers you to recognize the tools you have and develop new ones. I believe that all clients have an innate capacity for positive change and that therapy nurtures that side of you.

I use a variety of therapeutic approaches including Client-Centered therapy, Solution-Focused therapy, Family Systems, Play therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral therapy.
If you find yourself feeling low and unmotivated to accomplish tasks, feel out of control because your emotions or thoughts are intense, or maybe you feel like there needs to be a change in your lifestyle, this could be a launch point for getting into therapy. As a therapist I hope to create a safe and welcoming environment for people to feel comfortable sharing their life experiences with me at their own pace. There are also times in which life circumstances may be overwhelming, or certain trauma triggers are continuing to be an issue, we can work on how to manage the difficult emotions in order to function in any environment.

At times we may feel that there’s no one that can understand us or fear not looking like the “strong” friend. We struggle to talk about our emotions and often wear masks out of the belief that nothing will change. Do you struggle to take up space in conversations or in a room due to lack of confidence? Or constant feelings of inadequacy due to struggles in managing high expectations placed upon you? Have you struggled with self-love and the intense demands/pressures society has placed on you physically, professionally, socially etc? Are you wanting to create a full life irregardless of a number on the scale?
