Accepting New Clients Now! Hello! I'm a sport psychologist and counseling psychologist. I'm warm, experienced, collaborative and dedicated to helping people reach their full potential at work, in sport/the arts, and in life. As part of this work, I help people thrive in the face of health and pain concerns. I have graduate degrees in Kinesiology, Counseling Psychology (Maryland) and postdoctoral training in chronic pain research from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. I've walked the walk as a former NCAA athlete (golf) and someone who has personally dealt with health concerns. I hope to support you in reaching your goals.

I specialize in working with successful men and women in tackling personal and professional challenges. I use a variety of mindfulness, psychotherapeutic, & hypnotherapy and metaphysics to help clients identify and transform self-defeating core beliefs into experiences that support healthy adult relationships and well-being. I offer mindfulness coaching, and the elite Mindful Performance (mPEAK) program developed for the US Olympic Cycling Team & Stress Reduction (MBSR) workshops are offered periodically throughout the year for entrepreneurs, medical & business professionals, & athletes.

Counseling and therapy services should be approached as a collaborative effort between the counselor and client with the purpose of establishing and achieving goals mutually agreed upon. The goal is seeking to help the client address, resolve, and cope with issues that are affecting their wellness and ability to thrive in life. I work with clients who are experiencing life stressors that are causing distress in their lives that require therapeutic interventions and specified therapy approaches.

I am a clinical psychologist providing psychotherapy to children, adolescents and young adults. I specialize in working with individuals who have medical conditions (e.g., chronic pain, headaches, diabetes, sleep) and chronic illness. I am uniquely qualified to provide psychological services for illness management including adjustment to medical conditions and medically related treatment. I additionally work with healthcare professionals and students including medical and graduate students, psychology trainees, and undergraduates.My goal is to help you function in daily life not to just get by, but to live the life you want to live.

I believe that the power of therapy comes through the understanding of how self defeating patterns of behavior interfere with our ability to have a happy and productive life. I believe that focusing and building on our strengths will enhance our functioning. Examining our behavior is critical to developing healthy options for ourselves and in our relationships. Through an open and respectful process we will examine the areas in your life that have interfered with your ability to make positive, forward thinking choices. As you develop different coping strategies the hope of change will support healing and growth.

Over the past 20 years, I've had the opportunity to work with children and adolescents. In the last 10 years I've increased my scope to include young and older adults. Anxiety, depression, trauma and other behavioral challenges have made up the majority of my work. In each of these situations a strength-based, goal-centric and client-empowered approach has yielded success. In my experience my clients have simply wanted to feel better about their place in life while re-learning to hope once again. My work in schools and in practice have taught me that my success begins from a place of genuine care for my client's well-being.
