Welcome! I am currently accepting new patients for therapy and testing. Testing can be a wonderful starting point for treatment, as it can help clarify diagnoses and pinpoint treatment goals for the purpose of psychotherapy. If you’re not quite sure where to start with treatment, testing may be a good option.
I offer psychotherapy from an attachment based, relational, trauma informed lens. I conduct traditional assessments for LD, ADHD, PTSD, Bipolar, MDD, and GAD, personality assessments, and therapeutic assessments to answer specific questions (eg, “What is my attachment status?” or “Why am I stuck in therapy?”) in a short-term therapy model.
If you’re interested in beginning therapy or testing, the first step is a brief email or telephone conversation. We will then meet to review pertinent background information, and your goals for therapy and/or assessment.
