I am a licensed Psychologist with over 20 years experience working with adults and older adolescents. I currently see people struggling with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, relationship and interpersonal issues. I see many people who experience stress and symptoms associated with life transitions, such as adolescence, marriage/divorce, new parenthood, chronic illness, unemployment/underemployment, retirement and aging.I believe therapy is a collaboration to which I bring warmth, curiosity, a non-judgmental nature and an appreciation of individual differences.

Therapy offers a transformative experience that can lead to a more satisfying and meaningful life. Starting therapy takes courage and finding a therapist who fits can be difficult. A good therapeutic relationship should feel like a safe place where all parts of you are welcome. My goal is to provide a secure and supportive environment where you feel seen, heard, and understood. I approach therapy with an open mind and a commitment to deep listening, compassion, and insightful exploration.

I want to work with people that feel "stuck" and want to bring about meaningful change in how they experience their lives. Change can be difficult and uncomfortable. This work takes commitment and most of all the courage to sit in the discomfort of choosing something different. I help clients that are willing to show up for themselves as they navigate towards a healthier way of managing their lives. I believe that no matter how hard and uncomfortable it is look within, we all have a desire to better know ourselves and tap in to our fullest potential.

I am a psychotherapist who has been in private practice in for over 20 years. My professional experiences have given me a deep appreciation for our innate capacity to not only survive, but to transform difficult life events in ways that foster understanding, healing, and personal growth. For some, psychotherapy can provide a safe and nurturing environment in which to learn healthy coping strategies to better deal with the stressors of daily living. For others, it can provide a unique opportunity to work on a deeper level to address core issues related to family of origin, trauma, sexuality, and addiction.

Hello & welcome! Life is interesting. It can be complicated and overwhelming. But I believe that above all, it remains a beautiful gift, as each of us have a right to become our most insightful, confident, and authentic selves. Throughout life, we may have developed defenses or created thought and behavior patterns designed to help us survive, obtain love, or have certain needs met. For children, teens, and adults alike, worries and sadness can emerge, and difficulties can arise from disconnecting from one’s true self, one's family, one’s social circle, one’s gifts, and one’s purpose.
