Life is a tapestry of experiences - every thread woven together uniquely; specifically stitched is each one of our stories. Inevitably and sadly sooner than wished, comes the problem of pain. Pain can hijack our path (or alter it altogether), leading to hurt, hopelessness and disillusionment. Pain often clouds our vision. We forget that what may appear to be a mess of thread through our eyes might look like a masterpiece from another vantage point. The defining factor? Perspective. Learning to share our story, feel our feelings and tell the truth about them empowers us to live authentic, purposeful lives.

Understanding that for most, making the decision to enter therapy is a difficult step, it is essential that I not only connect and relate, but I provide a degree of noticeable relief or insight within the first session. This is especially true with adolescents, young adults and men, who tend to be resistant at the onset of the therapy process. I meet my clients where they are at, build upon their strengths to address their struggles, establish mutually agreed upon goals, and become an advocate for their overall growth and well-being. I am affirming, but direct in my approach.

My practice is psychoeducational assessment only. Please note that I do not provide therapy. My clients are typically families of students in preschool through college who have suspected exceptionalities such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, TBI, giftedness, etc. Client goals typically include improved functioning, clarity, diagnosis when appropriate, strategies, recommendations, and advocacy. What clients say is most helpful is having test data and my clinical judgment to provide clarity, then help them navigate what to do with that data and how to get the help their student needs.

Everyone faces challenges in today's fast-paced society. Sometimes, the challenges can feel overwhelming. Therapy can help address issues that interfere with our relationships, goals, happiness and ability to function. Change in behavior does not typically come easily, though. Established thinking and behavior patterns may get us through the day, but they also can prevent us from reaching our full potential. When a client establishes a therapeutic relationship with a counselor, they in essence are saying that merely functioning is not good enough. They want more: increased self-awareness, improved relationships, enhanced professional success, greater personal happiness.

In a world where career demands overshadow personal fulfillment, you may find yourself at a crossroad. For the dedicated spouse of a high-powered executive, it’s about rediscovering identity beyond family life or rekindling a relationship overshadowed by a demanding career. For the high-achieving professional, it's the struggle to maintain a sense of well-being amid work pressures. It's about finding peace and fulfillment where they seem most elusive. You need a therapeutic perspective that not only comprehends the unique dynamics of your professional and personal life but also speaks the language of your daily experiences.
