Pregnant, postpartum, or parent of littles? Navigating the challenges of parenthood is not always made easier by the joys. Maybe you’re here as a mom struggling with all of the adjustments postpartum, you’re a dad feeling more irritable than you’d like, you’re crying or worrying a lot, having difficulty bonding with your baby, missing your independence, finding it hard to make time for your own needs, experienced a loss or scary birth, or you don't feel like yourself as an expectant parent, a new parent, or an experienced parent. We tend to have many expectations about parenthood and need help adjusting when things don’t go to plan.

Life is challenging and ever-changing. You may find you need someone to help you navigate through these life transitions. Parenting can be a challenge, especially if you have a child diagnosed with autism, developmental delays or intellectual delays. As adults, you are trying to manage it all. It can be harder when you are struggling with depression and/or anxiety, bipolar disorder or addictions. It is time for you to take care of yourself. We will build on your strengths and help you to find ways to meet your needs.

Early experiences shape our beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world at large. Having trained to work with both children and adults, I offer a greater awareness of how these experiences have impacted people throughout their lifetimes, and how they continue to influence relationships, mood, and functioning into adulthood. At times, we all experience feeling "stuck" due to these long-held beliefs and expectations. I provide support and guidance while you learn about yourself, and where these "stuck" places have originated, so that you can move forward with greater self-awareness and self-compassion.

We all have challenges in our lives and sometimes they lead to feelings of stress, sadness, loss, loneliness and dissatisfaction. Whether you are an adult or the parent of a child struggling with these feelings - you deserve to feel better. I believe that during these difficult times support, understanding and validation can help you to begin to establish goals and address your issues. Using a variety of modalities that include CBT, mindfulness, and family systems theory we can work together to achieve your goals and create a personal "tool box" of strategies to help you now and in the future.

I believe that counseling is a collaborative effort. I will work closely with you to help you determine what is causing you the most distress. I am committed to providing a secure, non-judgmental relationship. Together we can plan a course of transformation.

Are you feeling unrelenting worry, sadness, or overwhelm? Or is life not meeting your expectations? These feelings can be paralyzing and affect all areas of our lives. It would be my honor to help you navigate through this difficult time and find peace to live a more fulfilling life. I combine an individual approach that focuses on living in the present, helping you to manage life disruptions, and creating the life you want. This can also include Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) if we feel it would help you.

You love each other, and you want to work through the problems, but so far, nothing you've tried has helped long-term - including couples therapy. You feel like roommates; you argue about the same thing repeatedly, and you struggle to feel heard and understood by the person most important to you. It's brave of you to search for help, whether this is your first or fourth time. You both deserve to be in a cherishing relationship. It is possible to be happy together again. If you are ready to do the work, I can help.

I strongly believe in the value of therapy and I feel privileged to be a part of the healing community. I strive to empower you to make healthy changes that will positively impact your life.

At times, your life may seem out of balance, whether the issues pertain to home, work, or relationships. My goal is to help you find the peace and joy in life that you deserve. I specialize in the healing of trauma.

What keeps me growing as a professional and drives me to do what I do, are the individuals and families that I have the privilege to work with everyday.

As a Clinical Psychologist with over 30 years experience, I specialize in addressing a variety of relationship problems.

Therapy aims to promote healing and growth for individuals, and to enhance communication, connection and trust within one's relationships.

Are you struggling to cope with the effects of trauma or other stressful life events? Are feelings of anxiety and depression preventing you from living a full and meaningful life? People often search for strategies to find relief from their symptoms, but discover that these techniques are of limited use or create their own problems. I specialize in evidence-based psychotherapy for adults with these conditions - that is, therapy that has been extensively studied through years of psychological research.
