I believe in the power of psychology to restore health and happiness to those whose lives have been overcome by distress. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression and interpersonal problems associated with both every day life stress as well as with a history of trauma. I work with adolescents and adults in an individual therapy setting. In addition, I provide psychological assessment and consultation for educational and psychiatric purposes. I tailor my interventions in both therapy and assessment to my client's individual situation and needs.

The journey through parenthood can be overwhelming, scary, and lonely. Struggling to get pregnant can lead to feelings of shame and self-doubt. Other times, it is incredibly hard once baby is here. You may be feeling down, anxious, angry or feel like you are failing as a parent. Whether you are trying to conceive, in the baby stage, toddler years or have school aged children, being a parent can feel so hard, when all you want is to be good parent. As a certified perinatal mental health counselor, I have the training to help you find ways to cope with the stress and find joy in the moment.

We all experience challenges in life that are difficult to cope with and hard to overcome. Issues can range from difficulty adjusting to recent changes to more deeply rooted, long standing trauma. Substance abuse, dysfunctional relationships, grief and loss and feelings of emotional insecurity and instability are frequently life limiting issues that can be changed. When we decide to make a change, professional help is advantageous because an outside perspective can be enlightening and it's hard to change ourselves. Humans just want to be comfortable in our own skin.

Life can be hard sometimes, leaving us with bumps, bruises, and wounds that are difficult to heal on our own. Therapy is a space where you can better understand yourself so that you can heal and find a different and more meaningful way of being in the world. In the context of a safe and empathic therapeutic relationship, you are able to listen better to yourself, understand your emotional pain, and see the ways that it has impacted your life. It is through this process that the work of therapy can be both hard but ultimately rewarding.
