"Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It's a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity." -Pema Chodron. From this place of compassion, I embrace a collaborative approach in therapy to help you address current life challenges, explore lifelong patterns, and/or develop areas for personal growth. I see adolescents and adults.

Many of us today are finding life’s challenges overwhelming, and may be feeling unsettled and anxious, or down and depressed. We may feel that our relationships are suffering, or that our deeper traumas have been triggered, making it difficult to cope.

Sometimes life has mountains, and sometimes life has valleys. Sometimes when you are in the valley, it feels like you will never get out.

Hello! I am passionate about the work I do helping children (ages 6+), adolescents, adults, and families find hope, peace, and healing in their lives. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, social phobia, grief, adjustment disorders, divorce-related issues, and post-abortion issues. I employ an eclectic mix of cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused, and child-centered family systems. I also frequently provide psychological testing to children and adults to evaluate emotional, personality, and behavioral concerns, as well as educational testing to assess learning problems, attention deficits, behavioral disturbances, developmental delays, and giftedness.

I think as human beings we want to feel seen, heard, appreciated, respected, loved, and valued. I believe most of us want to make a difference in the lives of those around us, our loved ones, friends and community. Making a difference and enjoying healthy and gratifying relationships and contributing to one's community can take many forms but they all involve relationships. If you find yourself feeling deeply unhappy, confused and dissatisfied in any of your relationships, I'd like to learn more about you and what you are seeking in your life and in your relationships.
