Am I losing my memory? Do I have Alzheimer's disease? How can I keep my mind sharp? These are questions that I hear on a regular basis from my clients. We launched CerebroFit Integrated Brain Health to address these questions. Our company is based on research showing that healthy behaviors such as exercise, good nutrition, and treating mental illness are linked to better memory and cognitive functioning as we age, and can even slow down or prevent Alzheimer's disease and other types of dementia.

As a female therapist specializing in working with midlife women, I focus on supporting women navigating significant life transitions. Midlife often brings a period of profound change—whether it's the empty nest, career shifts, relationship challenges, or the physical and emotional transformations that come with aging. These shifts can stir deep questions about identity, purpose, and what it means to live authentically. My role is to help women reconnect with themselves during these pivotal moments. Many find that, after years of prioritizing others, they've lost touch with their true selves.

Psychotherapy is my second career. I come from a rich background in entrepreneurship and business management which makes me more focused on goal-setting that underpins my action-oriented approach. I work collaboratively with clients to define actionable goals and identify issues (conscious and unconscious) that act as barriers to long term psycho-emotional health. Philosophically, I embrace the idea that individuals often have the answers they seek to difficult questions. The real challenge may be finding the stillness to settle inner conflicts or competing thoughts (expectations, judgments, etc.) long enough to uncover personal truths.

While I greatly enjoy working with all adults around a multitude of life challenges, I have particular passion for working with elders and their families, as well as those affected by chronic and terminal illness (based on work and personal experience). I also particularly enjoy helping people find and express their authentic voices.

Are you struggling with life balance since your loved one has become ill? Are you now caring for an aging parent that didn't take care of you? Is talking with your family about your aging loved one challenging or stressful? As we age, so do our families of origin. Sometimes we are called back to our families of origin to help aging family members - like our siblings or parents. This can be challenging for many people. When we are called back to help, things like old wounds, family dysfunction and confusion on where to go for help can arise. Therapy can help bring clarity.

Nice to meet you! Unforeseen challenges and issues going on in the world can leave you reeling. Maybe you've been a pillar of strength to those around you but, at the same time, there seems to be no space left for you to meet your own needs. Self-critical thoughts, perfectionism and fear of falling behind can leave you feeling stuck: you want a better life for yourself and, at the same time, change seems daunting. Therapy can provide an accepting, wellness-focused environment for you to move to a place of growth and positive change.

“Aging is not ‘lost youth’ but a new stage of opportunity and strength." Betty Friedan. This quote succinctly captures the crossroads we all face, as we age: one can look back with a sense of loss and remorse or one can move forward with hope and inspiration for a better now. Friedan chooses the path towards opportunity and strength. Which path would you like to take? How does one face the myriad of changes that this stage of life presents? Grief & loss. A changing body & mind. Retirement & new freedoms. Family relationships & caregiver concerns. What support would you like along this complex and often unpredictable path?

Making changes can be hard and finding a therapist can be overwhelming. I started working in this field over fifteen years ago to help people like you find a space that is welcoming and provides the safety needed to explore whatever it is you are facing. I believe that everyone has their own unique story, and that healing takes place in the rapport built between client and therapist. Therapy can help you become unstuck. It can help reveal patterns that are no longer useful and can help build resiliency. Seeking wellbeing is a courageous act and I do not take that lightly. I would be honored to explore how we might work together.
