I incorporate faith-based principles as desired and am inclusive of all backgrounds and orientations.

It would truly be my honor and privilege to help anyone seeking growth and fulfillment in life.

Living with Anxiety and OCD can feel like being trapped in a loop. Thoughts race and you try and distract yourself form your worries and fears, but they just seem to get worse. The things that used to bring joy, now fell like too much, so you avoid them. You feel alone, like no one will understand these thoughts that do not make sense. Seeking reassurance helps for a little while but the anxiety always comes back. Living with anxiety and OCD makes everyday a struggle and it is exhausting. Life without the burden of all these worries can feel out of reach, but it does not have to be this way.

I specialize in play therapy and mental health counseling for children, adolescents, and young adults. I have fifteen years of experience working with children presenting with anxiety, behavioral challenges, twice exceptional/gifted, autism, ADHD, OCD, high achieving/perfectionism, depression, and more. I prioritize an authentic relationship with clients and use a strength-based approach that is child-led to ensure kids feel safe and connected. I am also passionate about supporting parents and caregivers throughout the process. My office is a warm and inviting space where kids can be fully themselves.

Do you ever wonder how you are going to get through a major life transition? When life takes you to a place of uncertainty, and you begin to question yourself and your ability to make quality decisions, wondering, "is it normal to feel this way?" Whether your changing jobs, starting a career, moving to a new area, or have a chronic illness, change can be stressful and requires a series of adjustments to get back to a sense of life balance. Much of my professional expertise focuses on life transition and the impact of change throughout the lifespan, from young teens to older adults. I provide individual, couples and family therapy.

I am one of the few psychologists in the country that holds a license in NY, TX, and PSYPACT that enables me to provide telehealth services across 40 states in the USA. Specializing in issues pertinent to adults and couples, I offer expertise in: Supporting high-achievers; Stress management; Relationship dynamics; Navigating life transitions; Parenting challenges; Addressing marital or family conflicts; Trauma resolution; Managing anxiety and depression. Witnessing my clients grow more self-regulated, fostering healthier relationships, and mastering coping mechanisms to tackle life's stressors is deeply gratifying.

I welcome all those seeking a space to process, reflect, and deepen into the questions that call. I help clients through life transitions, grief, depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues. I especially enjoy working with individuals navigating childhood wounding and couples looking to increase secure attachment. Psychotherapy can offer a unique opportunity to explore your current and past issues in a collaborative, non-judgemental, and nurturing environment. I strive to offer a safe and creative space where we can work together to help you make positive movement towards living a more rich and authentic life.

Finding the right therapist can be a difficult and overwhelming process. There seems to be an endless array of choices, and it's so important to find the right fit for you. In order to help make this process easier, I offer and encourage you to interview me over the phone, and I will be happy to answer any questions about therapy or the therapeutic process. I am skilled in working with individuals, couples and families with a variety of issues using an individualized approach. I have been in practice since 1990 and have extensive inpatient and outpatient experience.

Life's a journey, with many unexpected twists and turns. Sometimes we need someone to talk to, someone to share our thoughts and feelings, dreams and fears, and help guide us toward resolution. I want to help my clients navigate this path, and to also experience the possibilities of living their best life possible. I work with older teens and adults, and also specialize in women's issues across the lifespan, as well as those with health concerns. College students are a special interest, as are educators, as I’ve worked as a teacher and school counselor and understand the stress and dynamics associated with the profession.

My practice centers around teaching people principles on how to access their own innate psychological health, and how to utilize this understanding for their own well-being. This can include a healthier concept of self, a more productive way of viewing difficulties and overcoming challenges in life, and how to establish more meaningful relationships. I help client's suffering from depression, anxiety, attention issues, addictions, emotional regulatory disorders and relational conflict learn skills such as CBT, DBT, 3 principles training, and mindfulness to help better their lives. Teaching new skills is an integral part of my practice.

It is an honor and a privilege to journey alongside you as we work towards understanding the barriers that are preventing you from meeting your goals. I use an integrative approach of empirically based clinical techniques that are client centered. I work to meet you where you are. Together, we will dig deeper and look at the root of the problem. As we journey towards your goals, I will offer support, encouragement, and tools to help facilitate lasting change.
