I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in clinical neuropsychology for children, adults, and seniors .

I specialize in traumatic brain injury, stroke, post concussion care, ADHD, PTSD, and cognitive learning disorders.

Connecting with others is vital as is connecting with and understanding ourselves. While sharing with loved ones is important, this can sometimes not feel like an option or not meet our needs. Having a competent, compassionate presence in a dedicated space and time allows us to focus more fully on ourselves and what we wish to address. I believe folks have the capabilities to affect change in themselves and their lives. Therapy is a support and space in which to do this.

Hey there, welcome! I strive to be an effective listener and learner, meaning I want to learn about you and from you.
