Today we are faced with so many distractions that ask us to turn away from ourselves and our relationships. It’s hard to resist. Yet this leaves us feeling more stuck, isolated, angry, distressed, and injured. And I believe this makes therapy, and spaces like it, more important than ever; spaces in which we slow down to engage honestly with our past, present, and future. I see myself as your partner in this process, and above all am committed to being respectful, curious, genuine, appropriately challenging, and fully present with my clients.

Taking new telehealth clients! Mindfulness is a practice that can help many of us thrive. Perhaps you’ve experienced a major upheaval or maybe you’re grappling with more subtle, disruptive changes in your day-to-day functioning. Either way, such shifts can be destabilizing to our mental health, causing us to question core beliefs and ask: Am I even on the right path? New traumas unfold - older ones may awaken but we all still have a very real need to feel grounded and safe - to be free from the anxiety and depression that may obscure our truest selves. Mindfulness is a good place to start.

I have 5 years of experience in the mental health field. I believe that Mental health is just as important as physical health. Often times we fall into a dark tunnel and we need guidance into the light. Welcome to therapy, where I can assist you with finding the light at the end of the tunnel.

I have years of experience working with adults, children, couples and seniors. Clients with symptoms of anxiety and depression are a large part of my practice. From prior hospital work, I have knowledge regarding the impact of physical illness on mental health. I see clients both in person and virtually.

I operate with the assumption that happiness and well being is contingent on good relations with others and a healthy regard for ourselves. Most problems presented in counseling can be understood as disconnection, an inability to embrace ourselves or the people around us. Therapy can be a means of reestablishing meaningful connections by addressing the obstacles that thwart us. These obstacles can take many forms, such as excessive fear, unresolved childhood injuries, stalemated conflicts, distorted beliefs, insecurities, depression or addictions. I have found that therapeutic conversations are a very effective means for overcoming the obstacles to connection, meaning and happiness.

A lot of clients approach therapy because someone is making them feel they have to come, or they legally have to attend. Generally, clients get out of therapy what they put into it. Any client who is willing to attend treatment and engage with the work sees success.

My ideal client is the client that has an idea of what they want in life but is overwhelmed with life stressors such as anxiety and depression. This client needs a safe space to explore their life options and the triggers that are causing negative thinking patterns, self-doubt, and low self-confidence. This client needs support, encouragement, and a non-judgmental approach to achieve their goals.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing individual, couples and group therapy.

I strive to help people find their inner strength and to transform their perspective and their interactions with others.

Making the decision to pursue therapy is a huge step. It’s easy to push things down or avoid them, but making the choice to reach out shows strength. Maybe you’ve never had a safe space to share your true thoughts and feelings, or felt truly heard and understood. Let’s build that together here. My interests include assisting individuals in developing self-esteem and self-concept, as well as healthy and effective relationships with family, friends or partners. I also have experience working with those with anxiety, depression and other mood disorders. I do not work with families or couples.
