I work with children, adolescents, and adults who struggle with ADHD, anxiety disorders, depression, oppositional defiant disorder, parenting concerns, anger management, and life cycle stressors.
I recognize that the decision to seek out therapeutic services can be, for some, a daunting prospect. I view therapy as a gift of self-care where one can obtain support, comfort, understanding, and engagement in effective problem-solving.

After working within the Child Study team for four years and as a mental health therapist within an inpatient program for five years, I found mindfulness, CBT, DBT and psychodynamic psychotherapy are effective ways to help patients gain self-awareness and empowerment to overcome the obstacles that hold them back from their goals.
If you are feeling confused, unmotivated, distracted, or have difficulty staying on task, this can be a sign that you are experiencing a disruption and conflict within yourself that is preventing you from achieving desired goals or enjoying your current life. While we travel this path we call life, sometimes we encounter obstacles that seem like we just can’t overcome. We all have goals in life and we desire the best things for ourselves but sometimes we don't always take the right course of action for ourselves. Our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors reflect a hidden belief system within ourselves which decides our path in life.

I believe therapy works because of the relationship between the therapist and the patient. When there is an environment of mutual trust, you, as the patient, can feel free to talk about things that you may not have not been able to talk about before. When that begins to happen, there is an immediate sense of relief. As therapy continues and you start to feel less anxious and depressed, you can begin to make positive changes in your life.

As a psychologist for 42 years, 21 years as a school-psychologist, 22 years in private practice, I am frequently asked about my areas of specialty or my modes of treatment. I explain that what WE do (therapy is a joint effort) has everything to do with the person sitting in front of me. Everyone brings his or her own problems, histories, relationships, personalities, situations, and resources into therapy and it is not a one size fits all paradigm. And as similar as we humans are, we are each of us, unique.
