Do you want better control over your life? We only have one life to live, so why not make it a happier and healthier life.You actually have a greater amount of control as to what happens to you than you realize. As a Psychologist, in teaching you techniques, I help clients to create happiness and better physical health through the science of Positive Emotions when connecting with others in every day life experiences. Feeling better emotionally leads to a happier life. Clients are helped through Hypnosis (if interested) and psychotherapy to eliminate anxiety/stress, depression, to have restful sleep, and to improve self-confidence.

Taking the first step to enter therapy can be a difficult one, but with the help of a comfortable, safe environment, taking that first step can be empowering.

Neurofeedback is direct training of brain function, by which the brain learns to function more efficiently. It teaches the brain to improve attention, mood, behavior, cognition, and more. In simple terms, neurofeedback is positive reinforcement for the brain. We measure brain activity and teach the brain to make healthier patterns. Once these healthier brain patterns are learned the effects of neurofeedback tend to hold. Neurofeedback initiates self-regulation and enhances relaxation and cognition, all necessary components of optimal brain function. Neurofeedback can work on anyone, no matter the age. We treat a variety of conditions including ADHD, anxiety, brain injury, depression, insomnia, migraines, and more!

I believe life experiences are the greatest teacher. We go through many life challenges, difficulties, heartaches, but we should never forget the smiles, laughter, joy that come before or after those challenges. I am more a half glass full kind of person but I am pragmatic. I believe that the hard times can be really hard and if we need to cry, we should cry, be angry, be hurt, allow all the emotions to occur and feel them. The trick is to come out of those emotions with a new perspective so that we can grow and find our true self.

Therapy should not only focus on relieving your symptoms and distress but is also about building greater capacities for dealing with life's inevitable stresses and anxieties. I believe it is important to actively collaborate with you to find out what it is you want from therapy and to periodically evaluate the progress toward these goals. I look to tailor each person's therapy to their specific presenting problems and goals so that they will be able to feel better and feel more capable in facing life's challenges.

The only way to change is to define who you are and then change your habits to align with who your new self is.
