As a psychologist, I have two skill sets: psychotherapy and psychological testing. Many people seek out therapy because life is hard. Sometimes they feel like life is meaningless, and joy has slipped out of their lives. Others feel like life is terrifying and experience fear daily. Traumas will flash through their mind's eye and they cannot think of anything else. Things like relationships, work or school, and basic life tasks can feel impossible. My goal is to help you heal. As a therapist, my hope for all my clients is that they can live well, work well, love well, and experience meaning and joy in their lives!

Do you feel like you’re trapped in patterns that once helped you cope but now keep you stuck? Are you moving through grief? Maybe you are numbing out, engaging in compulsive behaviors, substances, or habits that used to get you through tough moments—but now leave you feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or even depressed.
These patterns can be hard to break, and facing them alone can feel exhausting. Together, we can explore what’s beneath these patterns, uncover the emotions and experiences that keep them going, and gently work toward new ways of coping that bring you relief and hope.

Emotional wounding, loss, trauma, and relational ruptures can leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and stuck in patterns that no longer serve us. Over time, it may feel difficult to access joy, safety, or authentic connection. Somatic psychotherapy offers a compassionate, but direct space to explore what hurts, what’s emerging, and what’s possible (body/mind/spirit) — so that healing can ripple through your relationship with self and others. This work can be especially supportive for those who’ve felt unseen or unmet in more traditional therapy settings and are seeking something deeper, more embodied, and holistic.

I integrate current research and traditional approaches to help clients reduce distress, improve daily functioning, and find fulfillment. Many clients I work with benefit from learning specific skills for stress management and interpersonal effectiveness. Others explore broader issues related to clarifying values and personal growth. In addition, I offer neurofeedback as another tool to train the brain to self-regulate, which can improve symptoms by promoting healthier patterns of brain activity.

Welcome and congratulations on taking the step of seeking out therapy; I find that contacting someone is the most difficult part. As you look for a therapist, I encourage you to first consider characteristics of the individual you believe you’ll connect with most and consider their education, licensure, and clinical approach second.

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists
When should someone seek treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
People should seek a diagnosis and treatment after a head injury, especially if they were unconscious, and an early diagnosis can lead to a better recovery. Signs of a concussion include headaches, nausea or vomiting, exhaustion, dizziness, vision problems, sensitivity to light and sound, problems with attention and memory, brain fog, unusual irritability or sadness, and unusual sleep patterns.
What’s the most common treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
Treatment for a traumatic brain injury will be different depending on the severity of the problem. For mild injuries, treatment may involve rest and over-the-counter pain or headache medication. For moderate or severe injuries, treatment may involve stabilization, medication, and rehabilitative therapies such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, cognitive therapy, and counseling.
How long does it take to recover from traumatic brain injury?
The recovery time for a traumatic brain injury depends on the individual and the severity and nature of the injury; the length of time spent unconscious is often an indicator of severity. Recovery time for mild injuries may be a week or two while recovery time for more severe injuries may be six months to two years. Research suggests that the vast majority of recovery occurs in the first two years after an injury; recovery after that time frame is less certain.
What if a traumatic brain injury is left untreated?
If a traumatic brain injury is left untreated, it can lead to long-term physical and mental health problems. Physical problems may include dizziness, headaches, vision, healing, or speech loss, and an elevated risk of dementia. Psychological problems may include impairments of memory, judgment, and decision-making, depression, aggression, poor impulse control, and personality changes.
