Finding the right words at the right time in relationships is tricky. Sometimes in the middle of an argument, when it matters most, words just aren’t there or they come out wrong. You may find yourself freezing in panic or leaving the room to prevent saying something you don’t mean. Sometimes, the fear of repeating past experiences paralyzes and it’s really hard to imagine ever getting past those memories. For some, you might be on the other side of the argument, saying things out of exasperation that you regret later. Relationships are hard! It's painful and lonely when you’re stuck and can't reach your partner.

I strongly believe that the essence of successful treatment is based on estabishing an alliance with the client in which he/she is treated with respect, compassion, understanding and acceptance. Recognizing that not everyone is the same I assess individuals' unique strengths as well as where they are having difficulty. I partner with my clients in defining areas of concern and formulating treatment goals. And I conduct sessions by both actively listening as well as providing direct feedback, interpretation and specific recommendations for effective problem-resolution. I work with individuals, couples and famiies.

Is it possible that this is your circus and these are your monkeys? We all have times when we feel overwhelmed, isolated, discouraged, frustrated by a difficult relationship-when we struggle to create the life we want. It can help to have someone walk alongside you as you build on your strengths to recover what life or trauma has buried. I love to see people shed the weight of unrealistic expectations and develop practices that protect their time and emotional energy.

I believe that couples who tackle challenges head-on, keep their hearts open, and commit to growth together are building a love that can last a lifetime. When you and your partner tap into self-awareness, flexibility, and genuine understanding, you're creating a foundation that's strong enough to weather any storm and bring you closer in the process. Every relationship hits bumps in the road, but with the right tools and mindset, those bumps can actually make your bond even stronger.

Finding the right support for your child can be a difficult and overwhelming task. Do you have questions about your student's academic ability or if their needs are being appropriately met in school? Students who have learning differences such as gifted and talented, twice exceptional, dyslexia and other learning disabilities, may not always receive what they need both academically and social emotionally. As a trained and nationally certified school psychologist, I have a thorough understanding of how children process information, barriers to learning, appropriate interventions and supports offered in the schools.
