I believe that the connection between therapist and client is the key for successful outcomes. I work in collaboration with clients to create achievable and meaningful goals. Therapy may be difficult or bring up uncomfortable feelings for some clients. For this reason, I conduct therapy in a caring, supportive, and nonjudgmental way. My approach is to work with clients in a supportive fashion and to encourage clients to challenge themselves to attain their goals in a safe environment. I strive to create a specific therapeutic plan for each individual’s needs.

My ideal client is someone who feels overwhelmed by life’s challenges—whether they are an adult grappling with anxiety, a child struggling with behavioral issues, an adolescent feeling lost, or a family facing communication breakdowns. They seek understanding, a safe space to explore their emotions, and practical tools to navigate their difficulties. Their goal is to regain control, find peace, and build stronger, healthier relationships. They want to be heard, validated, and equipped with strategies that allow them to lead more fulfilling lives, and they come to me for compassionate guidance.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist, specializing in the delivery of time-limited, evidence-based therapies to help you experience relief from feeling of anxiety and/or to increase closeness in your ro mantic relationship.
We choose our partners because the relationship brings us joy, connection, and safety. How do we maintain the good stuff as life gets more complicated? How do we recover from relationship hurts and regain the connection we desire? Whether as a couple or an individual, anxiety and fear can try to limit our choices. Worry can be difficult-to-control. A desire to avoid feeling afraid can lead to our world shrinking. Concern about the ways others evaluate us can make time with others much less satisfying. Together we can find ways to break free, claiming the life you've always wanted.

My career has allowed me to work with an assortment of presenting issues, while focusing on substance use, trauma, personality disorders, anxiety, life transitions, academic perfor mance, and chronic illness.
Life stressors and adverse experiences can become overwhelming. Many people find themselves in a place where they could benefit from some extra support. My goal is to explore with you what is holding you back from feeling more aware of and connected with the direction of your life. I provide a welcoming, non-judgmental space to help you discover inner wounds, wisdom, and healing.

I'm well versed in both conventional and alternative medicine, served as a White House Commissioner, and received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Academy of Pain Management.
My practice focuses on helping individuals, couples, and families who are suffering from emotional or physical pain or the aftereffects of trauma. We help them resolve the traumatic experience, as well as its consequences (e.g. physical pain, stress, disability, depression, anxiety, insomnia, medication dependence, isolation, etc.) Although many of our patients have not responded well to prior therapies, we've had outstanding success in helping them move from feeling a severe loss to finding a new and positive beginning. We love to work with people who are ready to change and eager to learn how to do it.

Are you excited to chat about your sex addiction, porn addiction & intimacy issues? If you said "yes," you'd be the first. Unfortunately, these issues may be running your life. And that corrosive shame deep in your bones? It's likely rooted in trauma (I'll be shocked if it's not). Fortunately, through attachment work, EMDR & other modalities, we can heal emotional wounds and move you toward recovery & wholeness. I also work with couples because I learned in grad school that, apparently, relationships are hard. There's infidelity, betrayal trauma, mismatched libidos, the fact that your partner talks to his mom nine times a day...

My philosophy of therapy is to partner with my clients in their journey of self-exploration and healing. I believe we have the knowledge and ability to overcome the issues that trouble us and help clients identify, develop, and mobilize their resources to solve problems and meet challenges successfully. My approach to therapy involves assisting my clients in increasing self-awareness, moving away from outdated and unproductive internal messaging, to develop new and healthy ways of relating to others and the world. My style is direct, genuine, empathic, and intuitive.

The process is always conducted in a warm, caring, and supportive environment and a collaborative manner.
Personal crises can be difficult but they can also present opportunities for growth and change. This may not seem possible when you are in the middle of one. The path to getting back on track is challenging but can be rewarding. Therapy is hard work but the benefits are well worth the effort. Your crisis may be the catalyst, psychotherapy the vehicle, and the therapist your guide. My mission is to promote, inspire, and support healing and self-actualization; my goal is your personal transformation.
