Altering the way we think and our daily behaviors can be an overwhelming decision to make. However, being able to achieve a healthy life balance and stability can provide us with a growth potential beyond our expectations. Therapy helps us explore ways to express ourselves more efficiently as well as to acquire coping skills to aid in alleviating ongoing personal struggles. I feel it is vital to create a comfortable, open environment in allowing my clients to convey vulnerable emotions. I achieve this through recognizing an individual’s unique needs while working collaboratively with each person.

As a pediatric clinical psychologist, I specialize in harnessing evidence-based, cutting-edge psychological interventions to help children, teens, young adults, parents, and families overcome anxiety, depression, school challenges, suicidality/self-harm, parenting stress, chronic pain, sleep concerns, physical symptoms (somatic, conversion/FNSD), and cope with chronic medical illness. I have practiced in Metro Detroit and the San Francisco Bay Area for over 10 years and I've been fortunate to train at world-class institutions, including St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Stanford University.

Life today is complex and one in which any additional stress can affect our ability to cope. My role as a psychotherapist is one of a partner with my clients in finding healthy ways through that maze we call life. When you experience emotional struggles, life stressors, trauma, family dysfunction, or medical concerns, it is not uncommon for you to feel as if life is unravelling. Utilizing a person-centered approach, I will work with you to develop positive strategies to navigate those obstacles in your life path in order to better understand your emotions and develop positive coping strategies for living your best life.

Life can have it's challenges and sometimes it is hard to know how to overcome them. Emotions such as stress, anger, anxiety, depression, isolation, guilt, or a mixture of emotions can make it difficult to move forward. I understand how our lives can be affected by how we feel and think. One of the first steps I take to assist clients is increasing their self-esteem, self-awareness, and confidence to be able to process the steps needed to solve their problems. I find it rewarding to work with diverse populations of clients, helping to evaluate your needs and explore what strategies work best for you.
