"It is my belief that everyone has suffered from a mood disturbance at one time in their life. What makes for different diagnosis is the intensity of the mood change and the duration. I believe we fuel our mood by our own cognitions and unhealthy habits and coping skills. My style is extremely interactive and direct, insuring results early on in the treatment process. When possible, I try treatment without medications, however there are chemical imbalances which must be treated via a Psychiatrist (for medications) and a psychotherapist for the psychoeducational piece,(talk therapy).I maintain relationships with area psychiatrists."

"Understanding yourself and your environment helps you to question unhealthy thinking, break destructive patterns and gain a better sense of our strengths and challenges. My goal is to work with you to examine what is -- and is not -- working in your life, then offer interventions and treatments that can help. "

"I work with clients on adjustment to life changes, anxiety, depression, identity development, racial stress, relationship conflicts, and work stress. While I enjoy working with clients who are already motivated to experience change in their lives, I also understand how difficult that work can be. As such, support and empathy are at the heart of all I do. It's essential to balance validating my clients, while also challenging them to confront obstacles and to see their lives through alternate lenses. I'm privileged to be able to listen and share observations with clients as we work toward treatment goals."

"The process of finding a psychologist who is a good fit for either yourself or a family member can be overwhelming and frustrating. I make it a point to ensure that clients who reach out to me feel heard and understood. Therapy can only be effective if it is a collaborative process in which clients feel they have a say in their own treatment. I mainly practice from a cognitive-behavioral perspective (CBT), but I also use other modalities in sessions in order to best meet the needs of my clients."

"Often times in life we face challenges that we just can't seem to understand. We began to think that there isn't any way that we are going to get through this, that we are going be the same again or that we will ever see the bright side to this adversity. I am here to say to you that while you are hurting today, worried today, depressed today and feeling hopeless....... today doesn't have to define the rest of your life."

"I am a licensed clinical social worker who provides individual and family therapy. I have experience working with all age groups, although my primary focus is on working with children and families. There are many reasons parents might seek therapy for their child or family. In many cases, a significant change or a new stressor can be overwhelming. Therapy can help a family to utilize their strengths to support one another through these changes. In addition to therapy, I provide supervision to therapists who are seeking licensure or are licensed but seeking additional support."

"Life can be very challenging, and I am optimistic that each client is capable of meeting that challenge. I am compassionate and an attentive listener. My style is interactive in helping each client or couple create a vision of the life they want to live. We work as a team to achieve your goals for a happier more fulfilled life."

"Life's transitions are challenging at any age. Loss inevitably comes with a period of mourning and grief. But any change, a move, a new relationship, the birth of a child, a new work situation, can sometimes leave us feeling depressed, anxious, overwhelmed, or just generally ambivalent or apathetic. We may find ourselves unable to fully enjoy life's pleasures or to make or sustain meaningful connections with others. We may carry around a sense of being stuck and not knowing how to move out and forward from that space."
