It can be scary & frustrating when you don’t feel like yourself & don’t know why you feel this. You’ve tried everything to help with your mood changes, overwhelming feelings of nervousness, guilt and not feeling good enough, but nothing seems to work. It can be scary reaching out to a counselor because you want to find someone who really connects with you. I began training in 2011 at The Weinberger Clinic, now part of The Menninger Clinic. I believe in creating an alliance with my clients. My warm & compassionate demeanor allows me to empathize with my clients, put them at ease & help them open up.

I appreciate your taking the time to learn about my psychological practice. I am a licensed psychologist working with adults struggling with a range of difficulties including depression, anxiety, relationship problems, and psychological adjustment to stressors. I am keenly interested in women's health issues, such as helping clients with problems along the reproductive spectrum from preconception counseling through the changes and challenges of parenthood or acceptance of alternatives to clients' original reproductive plans. Within a warm and respectful environment, I collaborate with clients to work through difficulties they are experiencing, maximize strengths and skills, and achieve goals.

"Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself." My goal in therapy is to be a guide for each individual as they become a person they honestly admire and respect. Clients need to be ready to explore with honesty and courage the patterns of behavior and relationships that leave them unhappy and repeating mistakes. Exploring the past, we look for beliefs and historical factors that create vulnerability for engaging in negative behaviors, and discover untapped strengths and potentials. Assessing the present, we find the obstacles, challenges, and opportunities that fill your days, so that you can develop patterns of greater enjoyment and personal satisfaction. Dreaming of the future, we develop and move toward realistic goals so that you are not looking back over a life of "I wish I would have". While maintaining a positive tone and outlook, I believe therapy is less about helping you feel good and more about helping you be good so you feel good. Sessions focus on understanding and altering less helpful, protective patterns of interaction and behavior and actively developing patterns that create excitement and greater intrinsic personal satisfaction.

Are you struggling with a difficult relationship, situation or feelings? Perhaps life's stresses and strains are getting you down. If that sounds like you, then things are looking up. A really bright guy once said, "In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity." I believe that quotation by Albert Einstein sums up the positive potential of problems. They are a reason to re-evaluate, a chance to do something differently and a reminder that tomorrow doesn't have to be the same as today.
