If you’re feeling disconnected or like you have lost your way in important areas of your life, you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. I seek to understand what it’s been like for you in facing these challenges and I join with you to create a roadmap towards more meaningful and aligned ways of moving through life.

In my current practice, I see adults and couples with a broad range of difficulties. Some of my clients are doing well overall, but need help with a specific problem (e.g., a relationship difficulty). Other clients seek help because they are in significant distress and are experiencing debilitating symptoms (e.g., destructive interaction patterns, breaches of trust in significant relationships, Anxiety, Mood Disorders, PTSD, Eating Disorders, etc).

In encompassing a person-centered approach to therapy, I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My goal is to help guide and support you on your journey of self-discovery and self-exploration.

At times, many of us contend with emotions and suffering that are overwhelmingly painful, disheartening and difficult to bear, often as a result of unique stressors and events. I work with adults, adolescents, families and step-families using Emotionally Focused Therapy, EMDR, interpersonal psychotherapy, and DBT/CBT within neuroscience and attachment frameworks. I encouraged clients to access inner strengths and free their capacity for growth. Whether you or a family member experience depression, anxiety, marital distress or difficulties with peers, you deserve support in a confidential, accepting, safe and caring environment.

My practice consists of two main areas, psychotherapy and school psychology. With children, adolescents, and adults, I can work on issues like reducing anxious and depressive symptoms, or enhancing overall well-being. I can also help people who are struggling with obsessive-compulsive disorder or who need help regulating their attention and hyperactivity. With children and adolescents, I can conduct comprehensive psychoeducational assessments to try to figure out if they have a learning, attention, and/or intellectual disability.

Sometimes, life experiences have a significant impact on our ability to embrace the present moment. As a result, we engage with our current circumstances trying to defend and protect ourselves from past wounds. Yet, we long for more. More acceptance, more motivation, more healing. Maybe you've realized, "this is not working. Something needs to change and I need to figure it out." You have reached the point when you're no longer satisfied with wondering how things will work out. You want to see tangible change happen.
