It is my mission as a psychologist to make psychological services available to all and to provide the highest quality of service I can to anyone who is willing to take a chance and trust me, a complete stranger, to help them. It is not easy to ask for help and it is even harder to make changes, even if the changes are necessary. My ideal client is anyone who is willing to take a chance on trying therapy and who will embrace it as a possible step towards improving themselves.
I feel that I possess a nice balance of transparency, authenticity, knowledge, and humility. I am honest, patient, and nonjudgmental. I consider it an honor to be able to do this work and am committed to using my knowledge and experience in whatever way I can to help you.
The therapeutic connection is essential to having success in therapy. Please feel free to give me a call and I will happily chat with you to discuss your difficulties, my experience/approach, and to see if I am the right fit.

People are very complex and I feel my approach to therapy respects this above all else. My approach is always specific to the person and their problem. I do tend to place some emphasis on relationships, thoughts/beliefs, and identity/culture, as these things often have a big impact on mental well being.

My primary goal is to support and help you effectively. Technically speaking, my approach to therapy uses both cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic interventions. I believe that a balance of a strong, authentic, and productive therapeutic relationship combined with critically examining and sometimes challenging thoughts and feelings is often the fasted route to helping people meet their goals.
