Does it feel like a struggle to find someone you actually connect with? Do you find yourself staying in relationships despite something feeling “off” or seeing the red flags? Maybe you are trying to bounce back from the ending of a relationship. You might be feeling stressed, confused, sad, or just exhausted of being stuck in a toxic cycle. You want a safe space to vent and process what you are feeling, so you can get unstuck, better understand your patterns, and improve your self esteem.

Do you or your child struggle academically, emotionally, or socially? Does your school not provide necessary testing or learning accommodations and support? Or does your gifted or 2E child not receive the enrichment needed to achieve his or her full potential? Neuropsychological evaluations help students obtain the learning recommendations, school and testing accommodations, or enrichment needed for academic, emotional, and social growth. Clients and families also often find the assessment process therapeutic in itself, as it leads to understanding of individual strengths and weaknesses and clear diagnosis of any disabilities.

My practice is focused on supporting healthy development. I work with parents and young children to address behavioral issues, attention problems, anxiety, and other life issues that can sometimes get in the way of children reaching their full potential. In addition to working with children individually, I also help parents develop and implement strategies to improve their children’s cooperation at home, academic achievement, social and emotional functioning, self-esteem, and coping skills. I also work with adults who are seeking strategies to increase their happiness and success while managing the stress and challenges of life.

My primary focus of treatment is trauma recovery, depression, and anxiety. Many people have chronic low self-esteem stemming from early childhood messages received from adults and others in their lives. The coping skills used at that time may have been adaptive, but in the present, they are no longer helpful. If you are depressed, anxious, and feel alone, don't know what to do, or if you suffer from a difficult past, I can help. You're not alone. I engage in strengths-based, solution-focused person-centered work and use a variety of traditional mental health modalities.

Do you feel like the same scene is playing out in your life over and over again, but an inability to change the script? Do you feel powerless in managing confusing and intense feelings and difficulty in understanding why you feel this way? I am a psychotherapist that gives a safe space to children, adults, and couples who want to help make sense of your thoughts/feelings/behaviors. Also, if you're having trouble with your relationships-trouble connecting with people, isolating, or trying to figure out why something turned out the way it did, I can help you uncover that and help you create future relationships you actually want.

My therapeutic treatment is an individual personalized plan (IPP) that starts by assessing client’s expectations and goals and progresses into a tailor-made treatment. "Starting with The End in Mind", states Covey, S., clients bring to therapy their own narratives to which expect solutions. As we unfold, several plots emerge. With the ultimate client's goal in mind, our sessions take a ride in the client’s journey thru past, present and future. Whereas seizing the present is the key, looking ahead and glancing back at the past gives it a re-significance as the past does live in our present and is strong enough to shape our future.

If you grew up in a household with abusive, narcissistic, codependent, addicted, or otherwise struggling parents, and now experience distress with feeling good-enough, finding fulfilling connections with other people, depression and anxiety, setting boundaries, and making sense of your reactions to various situations, then I can help. Also, if you are just having trouble with relationships - perhaps it's hard to make good connections with other people, or you are feeling isolated and are confused about how that has come about, then I can help you with figuring that out and developing the kinds of relationships you ultimately want.

Do you feel like you’ve lost sense of who you are or want to be? Does daily life sometimes feel relentless? Have anxiety, depression, stress and life changes drained you of your ability to fully connect with yourself, your loved ones, your passions and goals? We all get caught up in life, and the patterns we’re used to, and change can feel so unattainable. Sometimes you feel so stuck in how things have always been, have always felt, and how you “should” be - that you aren't sure how to even start making changes. I can help you unpack some of the weight you're carrying, so you can start to work toward a more satisfying life.

Do you often feel inadequate? Do you find yourself worrying or feeling down on your luck? Does maintaining relationships feel harder than they ought to be? These feelings often result from how we have learned to see ourselves based on past experiences and relationships. Difficult relationships in our past can leave us with unhelpful and unhealthy ideas about ourselves that is hard to change. And Yes, the past is very powerful, but it does need to determine our future. Using a psychodynamic approach, I try to help my clients feel less entangled by their past and ultimately more in control of their lives.
