I take a whole body approach to health and illness with a focus on how the mind influences the body just as the body influences the mind. Anxiety, depression, and stress can impact health and exacerbate chronic pain, heart disease, insomnia, and other medical problems. However, addressing the emotional aspects of medical conditions can improve quality of life and physical health. Also, psychological principles can help enhance wellness and lead to lasting behavioral changes. As a health psychologist, I can help you emotionally cope with medical conditions, make healthy lifestyle choices, and learn skills to move forward with your life.

I work as a partner with my clients to gain or restore a healthy balance individually and within the context of their relationships. I work with the whole person from a humanistic and systems perspective. We do not live in a vacuum, therefore each and every person is connected to others somehow in relationship, whether that relationship is healthy, conflicted or estranged and whether that relationship is with family, friends or colleagues. There is great value in working with an unbiased professional to help identify patterns and ways of relating that are possibly holding us back.

"We change our behavior when the pain of staying the same becomes greater than the pain of changing. Consequences give us the pain that motivates us to change." ~H. Cloud. Change is always hard but often necessary and attainable with the appropriate guidance and tools.

Healthy relationships promote happiness, security, success, and even physical health!
