Have you reached a crossroads in life where it feels difficult to move forward? Are you facing challenges from an illness, disability, or chronic pain? Isolation? Financial stress? Or just the inevitability of aging? I can assure you that no matter the circumstances, you can bring hope, joy, meaning, and human connection back into your life. Often, people who face difficult situations feel overwhelmed and hopeless. They pull away from friends and family. They feel little pleasure in activities they had enjoyed in the past. And sometimes they fall into habits that hurt themselves or others.

As a psychologist I work collaboratively with my clients to address their concerns (both in-person and via teleheath). I have extensive experience working from an interpersonal perspective with adolescents and adults dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family issues, trauma, loss and adjustment to life changes (e.g. illness, divorce). I believe it is important to explore how a client's family background, culture and social environment play a role in the challenges my clients are experiencing. I view people as resilient and help clients to use their strengths and resources to make positive changes in their lives.

I bring a holistic approach to help you and your child foster positive social, emotional, and behavioral well-being across settings.

I view psychotherapy as a collaborative process between therapist and client. I have a varied and flexible range of therapeutic modalities which, after ascertaining what is needed, I will tailor to each client. Every person is different and therapy is not a "one size fits all" endeavor. Some clients come with a specific problem they want to deal with, and some clients come with a feeling that their life isn't moving in the right direction but they don't really know why. I work in both short term and long term models.

You often feel misunderstood, ignored, even silenced, and this prevents you from asking for what you want...for what you deserve. And, every time you think you are ready to say how you feel or ask for what you want, you realize you are just too exhausted and would rather keep your feelings to yourself to avoid conflict. Deep down you know that you are struggling with your confidence (although you may not show it on the outside). You find yourself in a cycle of unhealthy relationships but you can’t find the motivation or the courage to break the cycle. It’s time to break the cycle and speak up.

The most important step towards healing is acknowledging and addressing the unresolved emotions inside you. Unprocessed adverse childhood experiences, traumatic events, and family issues can stay with us throughout our lives. Often, our earlier experiences lead us to function in ways that leave us unhappy, stuck, or unfulfilled in our relationships with others and in life in general. Moving toward accepting what has occurred in the past can slowly dissolve the pain and trauma. I am privileged and honored to respectfully and compassionately hold space for you and your story. I offer both In-Person and Telehealth Services.

I am a mature and long-time clinician. I focus on family issues, parenting crises, divorce/custody, and the problems of older adults. In the past few years, I have become quite comfortable with virtual office treatment. I am warm and engaging and able to establish meaningful rapport. Virtual therapy isn’t comfortable for all but surprisingly it can offer an intensity that is sometimes not easily established in the traditional setting. I am glad to offer assistance with the technology of virtual therapy for those who are less experienced.

I specialize in providing creative art therapy services to individuals of all ages and am dedicated to helping my clients discover their own unique path to happiness and wellbeing. Words alone often cannot express the emotions experienced for many people who are struggling to overcome trauma or challenges in life. By combining traditional psychotherapy with the creative process, art therapy can provide opportunities to explore behaviors, emotions, and experiences. Each session can provide a wonderful outlet to relieve anxiety and stress. No previous experience in art making is needed to benefit from this therapeutic method.
