I work to maintain a trauma informed and multicultural practice; meaning that I understand and am sensitive to the effects of trauma as well as the impact that culture has on the lives of my clients. As such I endeavor to practice in a way that welcomes and embraces individuals from all different backgrounds.

Everyone needs a little extra support from time to time; finding the right therapist can be a trying, anxiety provoking task. As a therapist, my responsibility and pledge to those I serve is to holistically attend to each individual. Through strengthening your inner healthy self-talk, affirming your values and beliefs, and walking alongside you to further develop your "true" self, we can build a bond of trust and hope.

Does stress, anxiety, depression or anger affect your daily living and/or relationships? Feeling sad, hopeless, or stuck and don't know where to turn? Struggling to find balance with all of life's responsibilities or maintaining healthy relationships with boundaries? You can find comfort in knowing that you are not alone in what you are experiencing, it is not uncommon, and there are solutions. My goal is to create a safe, judgement free space for an experience that will be meaningful, provide healing, and support your journey of self-discovery.

Maybe you're experiencing prenatal anxiety or postpartum depression and aren't sure how to break the cycle.

No matter what challenges you face as you try to begin, grow, or support your family, I will provide a safe space for you to overcome them. I will be there to support you every step of the way as you find healing, hope, and wholeness.

We are living in a very trying time that can make us feel isolated, fearful and uncertain of the future. We may be experiencing emotions we have never felt before and don't quite know why or how to cope. Seeking therapy is not an all or nothing process, sometimes it is just needing someone to touch base with to help work through feelings or thoughts in a safe and non-judgmental space. Through exploration we can uncover barriers & work toward a healthier quality of life. Through discussion and reflection we become empowered to reconnect with our inner voice to help us feel more in control and less overwhelmed.

My personal theoretical foundation is not limited to one approach. I believe it is necessary for counselors to be adaptive. Every client is different and our responses and approaches should be equally diverse. One person may need a cognitive behavioral approach whereas another would be more responsive to brief counseling. This eclectic approach will be applied to all clients. Techniques will vary between clients to best meet the individual client's needs.

As a clinical psychologist, I have been supporting youth, adults, and families in improving their mental health and daily functioning for over 10 years. My therapeutic approach incorporates evidence-based therapies along with your input to guide sessions and interventions. Our sessions will center on exploring your thoughts and behavioral patterns, identifying and communicating feelings and working toward developing healthy perspectives, coping strategies and strengths for improved functioning.

For 30+ years I have engaged collaboratively with individuals and families seeking relief from the challenges of depression, anxiety, chronic/severe mental health concerns, various personality disorders, trauma, ADD/ADHD, grief/loss, and major personal/interpersonal life transitions (e.g. deaths, disease, divorce). I subscribe to an eclectic, humanistic, client-centered approach to treatment that is supported by a variety of treatment approaches. My firm commitment to the values of mutual respect, human dignity, and loving kindness serve as a strong foundation for my integrated clinical and holistic approaches to promoting wellness.

At times, we may find ourselves in need of additional assistance, for various reasons. If you are considering therapy, I would be honored to join you on this journey, and offer support for you, your child or your family. I believe you are the expert on your life, so we will work together on setting goals and finding ways to meet them, that work for you and your family. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel heard, be vulnerable, and gain confidence to use your strengths to improve your daily living and achieve your goals.
