It has been my privilege to help people develop lives that are deeply meaningful and emotionally satisfying. Psychotherapy is not a set of tricks or techniques. Rather, it is a personal relationship that affects people on a number of levels. Most of my clients come away from the process with some new practical skills and new, more adaptive ways of looking at life. They also hone their capacities to look at themselves, with more insight and greater self-understanding. Particularly rewarding for me has been my work with families, assisting them in healing from the wounds and fractures of divorce.

I am an established psychologist, working in the Lakewood area with individuals, couples, and families for a number of years.

I start where you are. I firmly believe that life rarely unfolds in a straight line, and that we can all find our way— no matter how lost or hurt we might feel. Whether you are struggling with illness, death of a loved one, a learning problem, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, difficult family dynamics, prolonged poverty, traumatic events, or other emotional, relationship or socio-economic factors, healing can occur.

I love to help couples and relationships find their connection. You might feel there is a pattern to your fights. You argue about the same things and are both left feeling alone and not important to your person. We will explore how to identify and ask for what you want in a way that feels less threatening to the relationship. Let's rebuild the intimacy and closeness that you need to feel fulfilled. Working on communication by expressing our emotions and needs, slowing down the cycle and developing new experiences can bring about lasting connection.

If you're looking for services for you, your relationship, your family, or your loved one, it's a big step.

Many women experience emotional challenges that manifest as anxiety, depression, and behavioral issues. These symptoms may appear suddenly or over time in response to a major life occurrence. My niche clinical practice focuses on women's issues- particularly within the areas of loss and grief, physical and sexual trauma, and maternal mental health. My experience as a grief and trauma therapist services women who experience emotional and behavioral issues in response to miscarriage, infertility, postpartum depression, and other women’s issues that involve mood disorders, anxiety and decreased relationship satisfaction.

Sometimes we just need our own space—a space to process, explore, and challenge ourselves to learn and grow from our situations. My goal is to help people develop new insight, awareness, and understanding of their experiences and make changes that allow for a happier, healthier version of oneself. I place a lot of value on the therapeutic relationship—it has the power to help and heal. I strive to create a space where people feel safe and accepted, so they can dig deep and make change happen.

When we are out of balance in mind, body, or spirit, the overall effect is that we don’t feel well. We become plagued by knowing something is wrong, but perhaps do not know exactly what that is, how we got there, or how to begin changing it. As the imbalance worsens, so does our discomfort, and we begin to suffer the effects of emotional dis-ease and physical disease. An imbalance commonly presents itself (for example) as anxiety or depression. When a struggle wages in the mind, its effects are often felt throughout the body in the form of fatigue, distractability, digestive problems, muscle tension, chronic pain, and more.
