I offer a focused biopsychosocial approach on each individual, couple or a family's presenting concern or desire for treatment. I place attention on medical as well as psychological concerns as I see them to be interconnected. I work with a systemic understanding of the individual.

I studied meditation and mindfulness and apply them to my practice when applicable.

Trauma. It comes in many shapes and sizes. It affects everyone in different ways, and the effects can be devastating to your self-esteem, physical health, and overall life. You can feel angry; vengeful; depressed; withdrawn; alone; misunderstood. Trauma, in any form, alters us in mostly negative ways; and it doesn’t have to be that way. The first step in healing is to talk to someone you trust. Someone who makes you feel heard; safe; secure. Someone who accepts you unconditionally and seeks to understand so they can help you put those experiences in the past.
