Are you feeling burned out from juggling it all? Does your "to do" list ever end? Or, are you still up worrying about it late at night when you're trying to fall asleep?

My belief is that mental health is just as important as physical health, and that people can learn daily exercises to keep their mental health in check. I also believe the therapist/client relationship is one of trust and no judgment. I give each client my undivided attention and allow for open and honest communication.

I am working with both adolescents and adults. My theoretical orientation to counseling and psychotherapy is rooted in the philosophy of a humanistic-existential approach to human functioning. I use the tenets of individual responsibility to choice and decision-making and apply them within a cognitive-behavioral perspective (CBT) to counseling and clinical work. I consider myself a generalist with specialty training in cognitive rehabilitation, vocational/career counseling, as well as psychoeducational testing and other evaluations, such as pre-surgical evaluations (e.g., for bariatric procedures).
