I am client led and offer support and guidance as you process feelings related to issues that are getting in the way of you living a full and balanced life. Through the counseling process, my objective is for you to discover or re-discover your own power and ability to make the changes necessary for greater life satisfaction, balance and happiness.

Hello! I enjoy helping people to challenge their problems, to navigate new environments/social or emotional spaces, and to create new understandings of themselves as they evolve. I enjoy working with college-age clients, single people, couples, parents, veterans (I am an Army veteran), people facing life-stage change, and anyone looking to resolve issues from their development. I often find that, regardless of a client’s complaint, there’s a little kid on the inside who needs some resolution or reassurance for them to feel safe and enough so to move on in life. Self-efficacy, the status quo or a relationship...I'm here to help.

I feel honored to be engaged in this work and gratified when the individuals, couples and families whom I serve 'find their way'... healing, growing and discovering the possibilities in their lives.The benefits from psychotherapy may be symptomatic relief and solutions to presenting concerns. You also may learn to better cope with your family or other relationships, thus experiencing more satisfaction from those relationships. Another possible benefit may be a better understanding of your personal goals and values towards making life decisions.

PRACTICE IS FULL. I practice from a primarily cognitive-behavioral approach. Treatment typically includes challenging unhelpful beliefs about yourself, others and the world. Exposure and Response Prevention is typically used as the first line of treatment for OCD, OCD related disorders and anxiety disorders. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment, Dialectical Behavioral, and Relational therapies. Any behavior is an intention to sustain the self; yet many times the preserving behavior exacerbates the distress, fear, sadness, or anger.

As a psychologist with over thirty years of experience, I continue to be inspired by helping hundreds of clients break away from the fear, worry and despair that once defined them, and create the lives that they hoped for. In addition to psychodynamic therapy I have trained in Internal Family Systems Therapy and Emtionally Focused Couple Therapy. Using these tools I have helped clients move toward more inner peace and hope. My profession offers me a unique gift to be part of their journey towards healthier relationships, thoughts, and behavior.

Providing psychotherapy is my vocation. I believe in the healing power of safe connections. I will approach you with a compassionate curiosity and that will help you to know yourself more deeply, take risks to grow, and feel more confident in your daily life. I often work with the nervous system to honor how you have survived what life has given you, metabolize trauma, and allow new ways of coping to emerge. My hope is to support you in being more present, joyful and fully alive. I believe in the capacity of the human spirit to survive and thrive through transitions and life’s challenges.

Finding the right fit in a therapist is vital for success in therapy. I've been successful working with motivated individuals, couples and families who want to identify and work to resolve specific issues. I've helped couples reconnect with one another. I've helped individuals reduce their symptoms of anxiety, depression or addictive behaviors. I have experience helping to resolve trauma of various types. Transitions in life can be difficult and I am able to help with different stages in life like leaving home for the first time, empty nest, divorce, death of a spouse, changing jobs, retirement.

I have met plenty of people who have had poor experiences with therapy in the past, so I strive to be someone who can change their minds. I do my best to be real, respectful, and supportive of the people I work with while they grow to their fullest potential. I believe that helping someone to better understand their emotions, use their voice, build confidence, and work through any obstacles that hold them back, can lead to a happier, more fulfilling life.

I have an integrative, mostly behavioral approach to treating individuals. I focus on radical self-acceptance, non-rumination when feelings stuck in difficult thought cycles, and understanding the nervous system habits in the process of healing and self-regulation. It is very important that the therapeutic relationship is the right fit for you in your journey to maintain balance and health.

Feeling overwhelmed? Maybe you’re sad all the time or your thoughts won’t stop racing. Maybe you’re angry and frustrated by a relationship. Maybe you’ve suffered a loss and don’t feel like your “normal” self.

I work with children (ages 10 and up), teens, young adults, and families. I especially enjoy helping teens and young adults who feel stuck or overwhelmed in their day-to-day life despite being hardworking and empathetic. Often, my clients are looking to be heard, validated, and reminded that they are the experts on themselves and their experiences have shaped who they are today. If you’re feeling down, stressed or not quite like yourself, please know that change is possible.
