I believe that experiences and circumstances shape how we see the world and ourselves. Negative experiences can affect our self-esteem, relationships, feelings, and the way we problem-solve. I believe that people can grow to overcome negative experiences through understanding their past, present and future, as well as develop better awareness and coping skills. In our work, I will help you build insight into yourself, identify your strengths, heal from the past, and learn new skills. Schedule an appointment at our website WWW.HopScotchClinical.com.

I am currently accepting new clients who need intensive ABA in-home, school consultation, and group home settings.

I have practiced as a clinical psychologist for over 35 years. I still consider it a privilege to empower clients to solve the complications and problems they are facing. My practice has shown me that every individual is able to positively change his or her ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving, provided that he or she remains motivated and embracing of change. I treat people from diverse backgrounds for a variety of problems, including: anxiety, depression, relationship problems, postpartum difficulties, parenting problems and child custody issues. I also work with patients who are coping with aging and chronic illnesses.

My approach in therapy is to respect each individual as a whole person. I believe each person knows himself or herself best. Rather than just treating the symptom(s), I attempt to get to know the person well enough to guide them into insights of the CAUSES of their problems. My ultimate goal is to help each individual achieve the healthiest level of well-being and highest developmental level of functioning. Whenever appropriate, I work with multiple members of the same family in order to strengthen the family and/or marriage.

Do you find yourself frustrated by your child’s behavior? Do you sometimes catch yourself wishing you were a more effective parent? Parenting can give you enormous rewards and also deeply challenge your limits. It can bring up experiences from your own upbringing that you thought you had left behind.

I believe that any adverse life event can overwhelm the normal adaptive capacity of any person at any age. Untreated, it can lead to the development of dysfunctional behaviors, feelings, and thoughts, such as depression, anxiety, obsession, negative self-talk, low self esteem, procrastination, PTSD, anger & relationship issues, among others.
