I bring over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, teens, adults, and families.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and seeking change, my goal is to support you in finding clarity, direction, and renewed hope. Together, we will work to create a path forward that fosters personal growth and healing. I understand that beginning therapy can feel intimidating, so I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental, and calming space. Everyone possesses the potential to grow and evolve from their experiences, moving toward a more fulfilling and meaningful life. Seeking support during this process is not only normal but an essential part of fostering positive change.

As psychologists, clinical social workers and neuropsychologists, we provide services to children as young as 2 through older adults.
Today's children are faced with many pressures. Kids worry about lots of things-from being accepted by their peers and parents to worrying about academic pressures, ADHD, divorce, crime, drugs and illness. We understand these issues must be treated with great sensitivity-especially when working with children and adolescents. And that it is important that the therapeutic process be a positive experience in which young people feel safe and nurtured. Our goal is to help young people trust this process and understand that we're on "their team" as we help them successfully manage their world.
