I am a native Nevadan--born, raised, and working in Carson City. I’ve devoted over 25 years to providing support for children and families, individuals and couples--the past six years in a clinical setting. My clients work with me to improve communication skills and interactions. While my primary focus is play therapy, I specialize in teaching parents tools for improving relationships with their children by improving communication skills and increasing patterns of empathy.

Sometimes life can feel so overwhelming, and when you don’t have time or space for yourself to process, the burden can feel too big to bare. Stress, overwhelming emotions, relationship difficulties, and other life stressors can prevent us from experiencing joy and leave us feeling fearful and hopeless. Many don’t know where to start when it comes to processing difficult emotions, overcoming trauma and loss, or opening up to someone for the first time.

In my experience, therapy can bring about real and lasting change. My approach to therapy is integrative: we will consider all the relevant biological, psychological and environmental influences upon your well-being. We will focus on the changes you want to make and help you develop the life you want to live. I have been in practice as a licensed psychologist for the past 30 years. Since 2001, I have practiced and lived in Carson City where I have raised my family. I work with individuals ages 16 to 75 years old.

My interest is in helping people make significant positive changes in their lives. We have designed an especially attractive office and now added telehealth. Not only do I provide traditional counseling and therapy for individuals of all ages and families, but I also offer services to achieve optimal performance and wellness. Whenever appropriate, these services are complimented with the use of innovative technologies. For example, since 1992 I have used EEG biofeedback for brain training to manage attention and memory difficulties, migraine headaches, head injures, addictions, pain, depression, and anxiety.

Do you find yourself struggling to get through each day due to your anxiety, depression, or past trauma? Being a human can be challenging. These struggles can get in the way of a fulfilling and joyful life. My hope is to develop a relationship that allows us to tackle the things you find difficult, and find meaning and purpose in your life while allowing you to feel heard, seen, and validated. And because laughter is healing, and reality can be absurd, humor is welcomed in session.

Change can be difficult in any type of situation. Add trauma into that and it can feel as if we are drowning in emotions, thoughts and physical sensations. The reality is that we as human beings will always feel emotional pain of some sort, whether it be by losing a loved one, not getting a promotion, not passing a test, getting in an argument with your partner, struggling with past abuse.....I can go on and on. What happens is that much of the time we turn that pain into completely normal suffering and sometimes get stuck there with no relief. We can work in getting unstuck together and finding that overall relief our bodies need.
