I am a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of experience treating depression and anxiety, chronic relationship and interpersonal difficulties, marital problems and behavioral difficulties/anger management. Although I treat clients across all age groups, my expertise is working with adolescents and young adults, and helping them to navigate the complex emotional, social and family issues that often occur during these stages of life. I run a modern practice providing 24-hour care for my clients, including communicating via text and email as needed. My goal is to be accessible to my clients whenever and however they need me.

The marriage feels "meh." Your love and commitment are strong, but something is off. Talking about it hasn't helped. It just leads to more arguing, pain, and resentment. It feels like things are getting worse. You both desperately want to fix it. Because as much as you love each other, you can't sign up to keep doing this for the next decade and beyond. Something has to change. And in your bones, you know it can be how you are in your marriage. It’s time to renew your relationship.

We long to be loved and accepted for the person we truly are. There is no better opportunity than our love relationship for us to be fully ourselves. Ironically, since our partner is so central to our life, his or her validation becomes critical and we are inclined to hide our true self. We become guarded from the most important person in our lives. The intimacy and willingness to know and be known that made the beginning of love so passionate becomes simply functional. It is replaced with feelings of apprehension. Over time we move from a passionate relationship to one that is quietly cautious. That's when trouble looms.

In my 18 years of practice, I've found it most important to maintain fulfilling and satisfying relationships with those around them in order to maintain emotional health. In my experience, relational psychotherapy provides an atmosphere of empathy and attentiveness that elicits full disclosure of the experiences and events affecting the person seeking treatment. I see a therapeutic relationship as two people working together to forge a strong, collaborative, and secure relationship that can serve as a model for future relationships.

"If wrinkles must be written upon our brows, let them not be written upon the heart. The spirit should not grow old." James A. Garfield One of life's greatest and often labor-filled adventures is the journey into understanding one's own psychology. Many choose to not take this voyage and suffer in silence. Others, like you, take a chance... I specialize in working with adults who are suffering from depression, anxiety, addiction (withdrawal), weight issues, traumatic experiences, chronic pain, couples who are facing a disconnect in their relationship and those with family matters, and psychological coaching for athletes.

Clarity, Freedom, and Inner Peace are our natural birthright as human beings regardless of our circumstances and situation. Yet if we look at our life experience, powerful stressful emotions may plague our life either openly or quietly. We do the best we can, yet don't know another way of dealing with ourselves in a way that supports our vitality and freedom. What is needed is Awareness and Understanding. If you think you are experiencing anxiety/panic, depression, anger issues, reactivity showing up in your relationships, or fear taking over your life, I specialize in you.

Often we find ourselves waiting. Waiting to be well, to be cared for, and to care for ourselves. The challenges we face, however big or small, are often opportunities to form a deeper connection to the things we want. Psychotherapy offers an experience to create an open space so that you can begin to explore and practice the thoughts, behaviors, and feelings that we seek to experience when working on our goals.

You can't adjust the wind, but we can adjust the sails; while we may not be able to change the factors that come our way, we can change the ways in which we approach whatever has caused difficulty. This quote encapsulates my sensitive, inviting, and unique approach to psychotherapy. I work with a variety of patients; my specialties are two-fold: therapy for young and emerging adults through a wide range of presenting issues, as well as therapy for psychotherapists, and other helping professionals. Together we will explore, leaving you with a better understanding of yourself.

I have experience treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood disorders, personality disorders and more. I trained using the cognitive-behavioral approach but have incorporated elements of other approaches in order to develop a comprehensive therapeutic style. I have provided counseling for people from all walks of life. I practice with cultural humility meaning I aim to fully understand all the facets of one’s identity and how they interact with the world around them. All clients may have their own stories but they all work towards a similar goal: to lead a happier and healthier life. We will work together to get to that point.
