Do you have a child or adolescent that is suffering from anxiety or depression? Transitions can be difficult and result in symptoms, stress and unhappiness for some youth. I work to help each person get through their challenges and find their strengths. Families can benefit from a therapist who helps them to process their feelings and experiences. Parents can feel overwelmed when their child is suffering.

Do you feel your life is spinning out of control? Do you worry too much or do you see life these days through a negative lens? Are you experiencing problems with your relationships or substances? If so, I can help. I am a non-judgmental therapist with over 15 years of expertise in treating mood disorders, anxiety disorders, relationship difficulties, substance use disorders, behavioral addictions, life transitions, and anger management issues. I also have significant experience with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, phobias, grief and loss, ADHD, and Tourette's Disorder. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples.

As a therapist who works with adults, I use a collaborative, very direct and insight-oriented approach to therapy, so that our time together is effective. This enables maximum growth potential for my clients, whatever the reason bringing them to therapy may be. I believe the therapeutic process differs for each individual, and in working together, it is possible to identify the areas of oneself that could benefit from change and improve emotional maturity.

I believe that a decision to change means you're halfway there. I understand that deciding to seek treatment can be a difficult choice to make. It is important to find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and one who challenges you in a way to facilitate and inspire change. I hope that we can work as a collaborative team to explore which aspects of your life may be holding you back from realizing a more emotionally healthy and satisfying life.

I have extensive experience helping those with depression, anxiety, trauma, and behavioral issues.

I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship and I approach each client individually to determine their course of treatment. I also have a degree in Dietetics and understand the importance of a healthy lifestyle.

During the course of our lives, we all encounter periods of sadness, grief, worry, and stress. Relationships that have been rock solid may start feeling strained. The ways in which you coped in the past may no longer be working. If you're facing a life challenge and you find yourself struggling, it may be time to work with a professional therapist to help you find new and better ways to cope and thrive. Take the time to take care of yourself.

Have you been considering therapy for a while but something has gotten in the way? Did you try therapy in the past without arriving at your desired outcome?

Whether you are looking to make changes in your life or relationships, feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to begin, or if you hope to change the way you react emotionally, I can guide you to choose a new response.

We will work together to explore your experiences and address the concerns that have led you to seek therapy.

Reaching out for support is often a difficult first step in the process of getting help, enacting change in your life and healing.

Life is full of transitions. Whether graduating college, leaving home, starting or ending a relationship, childbirth, career change, bereavement, or aging, such transitions can stir up strong emotions, causing stress and even grief. I help individuals from young adulthood through their senior years who are facing depression, anxiety, and other personal challenges to access the strengths they possess and the skills they need to navigate such struggles with renewed confidence, presence of mind, and embodied capabilities.

How often do you say to yourself, “I feel stressed or overwhelmed.”? In today’s fast-paced world we have less time in our daily life to process our experiences and feelings. We can find ourselves becoming depressed or frustrated. A therapist can provide the additional support and empathy needed to guide you through these negative feelings.

Being in a cycle of unhealthy patterns and not recognizing who you are anymore can create feelings of hopelessness and devastation. Dealing with school, work and relationship stress can be overwhelming. Together, we will work towards reducing the negative intensity.

Change can be difficult, but I strive to help you overcome anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, women’s health issues, unhealthy relationships, and trauma. I also enjoy conducting a variety of neuropsychological assessments and evaluations for pre-surgical psychological clearance.
