I work with adults who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or worn down by stress or difficult life experiences. Many people reach out because they’re tired of living in “survival mode” and want a space that feels calm, supportive, and nonjudgmental. Clients I work with may be experiencing anxiety, emotional exhaustion, self-doubt, or a sense that something isn’t quite right and are looking for support that helps them feel steadier and more grounded.

You jolt upright in bed, heart pounding, trying to catch your breath. You're plagued by dreams of that devastating event night after night. Even now, the physical sensations, smells, sights, and sounds are so very vivid and easily triggered. It happened 20 years ago, but you still feel so powerless. "Why can't I just get over this?" you plead with yourself. Ever since then, life has been difficult. It's hard to hold down a job, let alone pursue a career. Friends and family try to connect, but you're always distant and guarded. Every relationship seems to dissolve into the same abusive cycle. You can't go on like this anymore.

I believe that there is no single treatment that will be perfect for everyone. I prefer to view each of my clients as an individual with individual needs and experiences. My treatment approach is eclectic, while based in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques. While I use CBT as a basic structure, I also include methods from other proven therapeutic approaches. My goal is to provide a targeted, tailored, and most importantly, effective therapeutic experience.

How does forensic psychology work?
Forensic psychology works by providing those in the legal system with expert information about psychology and behavior that they wouldn’t otherwise have. Forensic psychologists do this through a range of services—conducting psychological assessments for court cases, assisting police officers with investigations, providing expert opinion, helping with mediation, and providing mental health care to victims or perpetrators of crimes.
Can a forensic psychologist help with child custody cases?
Yes. In the event that it’s needed, an attorney or judge may appoint a forensic psychologist to provide an assessment and recommendation. This process involves multiple interviews with the child, the parent (or parents), and sometimes others. The psychologist assesses the parent’s mental health, strengths and weaknesses, and parenting practices to understand what’s in the child’s best interest. They then complete a report with recommendations based on their assessment.
Do forensic psychologists help solve crimes?
In some cases they do. For example, criminal profiling involves collaborating with law enforcement officers to construct a profile of a perpetrator based on psychology, personality, and behavior as suggested by the crime in order to focus the investigation. They may also offer expert input on subjects related to a case such as deception, false confessions, and the reliability of testimony based on eyewitness accounts.
How long do people typically work with a forensic psychologist?
The length of time an individual works with a forensic psychologist depends on the relevant service. For example, if a forensic psychologist is conducting a psychological assessment for a court case, this may take one to two sessions to complete (although they can be more extensive). If the forensic psychologist is providing therapy to someone accused or convicted of a crime, treatment may last for several months or more.
