I have been working with adolescents suffering with relationship issues, anxiety, difficult personality structures, depression, addiction, self harm and eating disorders for 17 years, I have expanded to young adults to age 35.
I appreciate the complexity of people. I believe in trying to understand all aspects in someone's life and recognizing the impact of their experiences, relationships, and understandings into the current way of life. There are reasons for certain beliefs about ourselves and others. I utilize my training and my own self in helping a client come to witness ideas and behaviors within themselves And then, find ways to make changes, find balance, and maybe even happiness.

Nobody wants their child to struggle with depression, anxiety, and overwhelming emotions. And nobody wants to suffer from out of control emotions and behaviors. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist who specializes in working with children, teenagers, and young adults to treat mood disorders and behavior problems by providing the highest quality care, compassionately delivered. With each patient, my goal is to integrate the latest science-backed therapeutic approaches with the individual experiences, needs, and preferences that patients bring to therapy, to co-create a treatment plan tailored to the needs of each patient.
