I provide a range of psychological testing/assessment services to children, adolescents, and young adults. I am not currently accepting referrals for therapy. Testing referrals are accepted from various sources including therapists, parents, and physicians. I use a combination of psychological and neuropsychological instruments to help identify factors contributing to an individual’s current challenges. The goals for psychological assessment often include diagnostic clarification, improved understanding of an individual’s strengths and areas of vulnerability, and the development of treatment and/or academic recommendations.

I provide a trauma informed, strengths based approach in my work with clients. I aim to help clients build/use coping skills, set boundaries that matter, sit with discomfort, regulate hard feelings, and release the anxiety that comes with needing to have it all together. My expanding work with OCD includes confronting our fears to unlock all life have to offer. My work with trauma focuses on identifying underlying beliefs that trigger us in our current life while learning how to regulate ourselves. Expressive arts and sand tray are tools I use to help break out of our thinking mind and into the here-and-now.

You know something needs to change but don’t know what it is or how to start. You have been told that you are “too sensitive" or "too emotional” and feel like no one else experiences the world the way you do. You find yourself feeling overwhelmed by everyone and everything much of the time. If you can relate to this, I am here to help. My goal is to work with you in an empowering, compassionate, and collaborative way. I meet you where you are. I strive to help you identify and use your inner resources to turn your perceived “flaws” into strengths.

Telehealth only. Psychotherapy is a unique opportunity to develop awareness, gain hope, and create the opportunity for change in one's life. Therapy begins with a relationship between the clinician and the client. The first and foremost element of change is the clinician's enthusiasm, personality and competency. That relationship allows change to begin. Researchers have described the dimensions of an ideal therapeutic personality as one who is genuine, authentic, accepting and open. Feedback from my clients is that I demonstrate those ideal qualities.

I have been practicing therapy for over 20 years working with children, families, and adults with a range of mental health concerns. I believe that attaining goals are achieved in a therapeutic relationship where the client feels empowered to make changes. I am rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy and family systems therapy. When working with children, parents are an integral part of the therapy process. I provide tools to manage symptoms; many clients state that they feel the benefit of therapy within the first few sessions.
