I feel that therapy is most effective when the patient and therapist work both in the present and the past. Often the patient seeks therapy in order to relieve a symptom (i.e. depression, anxiety) or to resolve a relationship issue and they want relief quickly. I understand this need to feel better as quickly as possible but also feel that it is important to address early interpersonal issues that are having an impact on current relationships. In working along these parallel paths patients often feel relief of symptoms and gain a better understanding of lifelong dysfunctional patterns.

Once you make the decision to seek therapy, the next step is to find the "best fit" therapist for you. My goal as a clinical psychologist is to assist each client on his/her journey to personal success. I've contributed to positive and meaningful changes in my clients lives by guiding them through feelings and alter unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Thus, assisting clients to create and maintain the life they desire.

With 23 years of experience, I am committed to guiding you on a pathway of healing. Many of my clients have a history of traumatic events throughout their lifespan, or have had a one time event that has not resolved. I utilize evidenced based treatment specializing in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as well as others (CPT, CPT-i, PE, CBT) to work through life experiences that have shaped negative thought patterns in order to move towards a more positive thought process despite previous trauma. The working goal is getting past the past; healing and having a new perspective on life!
