Feeling down? Stressed? Going through a transition? Struggling with relationships? Whether you are coping with an immediate stressor, looking to change long-standing bahaviors or gain greater self-awareness, as a licensed psychologist, I am here to help.

If your child’s anxiety is stopping them from participating in everyday activities, or if you are a parent struggling with how to manage your child’s behavior, you and your child can gain the support and tools you need to make a positive change.

My clinical training is in the area of Cognitive-Behaviorism & Task-Centered Therapy; I practice short-term Dimensional Solution-Based Therapy (DSBT).
