One’s experience in therapy should be as unique as they are as a person. In working with my clients, I do not use a one-size-fits-all approach because it assumes that one treatment or modality can meet the various needs of different clients.

At the core, I work to create a warm, authentic, and non-judgmental space for my clients as they go through the counseling process.

My approach to treatment is flexible and informed by those who I am working with.

I believe that everyone deserves a space to feel heard as they navigate in a new direction, away from feeling disconnected, stuck, and isolated.

I provide a safe, supportive, and warm environment as you begin to face whatever obstacles that initially brought you to therapy, and help you manage the conflicting feelings that often accompany this process.

I'm a clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience helping adults remove the obstacles to achieving their life goals - self-attacks, passive behavior, negative assumptions, delaying difficult life decisions, and repetitive, destructive relationship patterns. Our work together is collaborative, respectful, and goal-focused. It is also, at times, challenging - as is often the case with growth and learning, but the end result is the joy of increased freedom. Therapy gives a unique opportunity to examine our emotional life and re-evaluate the beliefs and presuppositions that affect our perceptions of ourselves and others.
