My strengths include treating depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, OCD, survivors of partner/childhood abuse.
With twenty years of experience in therapy, psychological assessment, and neuropsychological assessment, I provide clarity that has real-life value. I focus on research-backed therapies. I explain the process when I suggest a specific therapy for you (in non-therapist language). Expert diagnostic and therapy skills can also involve a genuine, warm, and honest relationship. I fight for what my clients need outside of therapy if they need it. I have wanted to be a Clinical Psychologist since I was a teenager. My training was a full-time, eleven-year commitment to that goal. I love what I do and feel fortunate to do it.

You deserve to be happy and live a joyful life. You do not have to do this alone I am here to help.

Are you struggling with your past? Anxiety? Depression? Many people believe trauma is limited to large events such as sexual assault, domestic violence, or natural disasters. What they don't realize is that trauma comes in all sizes, little "t"s and big "T"s. Experiences like shame, humiliation, bullying, and family dynamics, are often not taken into account but can cause similar harm.

I am trained in EMDR, a highly-effective treatment for the lasting effects of traumatic experience, such as emotional, physical, and/or sexual abuse, crime victimization, relational trauma, and much more.
I am deeply committed to supporting people around healing from experiences that have affected their ability to live the kind of life that they desire. A life that is free from deep emotional pain, and that allows them to be open to new and satisfying experiences. Therapy with me begins with establishing a safe and trusting relationship which becomes the context in which we can explore and modify those parts of your experience that interfere with optimal functioning and which block your ability to feel deeply satisfied with your life.

What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognize that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.
When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.
What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.
How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
