My ideal client knows they are suffering but may not know why. They know they need help but may not know what that will look like. They are an active participant in their own recovery and recognize that "active" can look different and feel different week to week. They are open to building trust, hearing feedback and ready to engage and be challenged. It is my priority to help you feel comfortable, supported, and heard. I have 10 years experience of treating a wide range of severe diagnoses, from major depression and anxiety to general stressors and day-to-day problems.

I believe that healing begins with being heard. The therapeutic relationship allows me to witness and attune to your experiences with acceptance and positive regard. Together in practice, we can foster internal exploration that leads to supported change. My therapeutic approach is guided by a feminist, person-in-the-environment perspective. Real wellness is grounded by insight into one's personal story, and how the language, habits, and our personal reactions influence our well-being and internal state.

My philosophy is that "knowledge is power" and I believe that every predicament can be an opportunity to learn and grow, but most importantly, the first step is to identify the problem accurately. As a Clinical Psychologist, I am passionate about helping my patients gain insight about their mental and emotional strengths and vulnerabilities through an objective and comprehensive evaluation by using standardized measures. Once all the information is gathered, I will offer extensive feedback regarding the results and make recommendations to help you or your child get the treatments or services needed. I work with ages 4 - 59.

I perceive life as a journey, consisting of searching meaning and coping: Meaning in different roles and aspects of life motivates us to move forward; coping is strategies to get there from here. However, at different life stages, we often got stuck because of different reasons. Thus, either we no longer can see the life meaning(s) and/or our coping strategies are no longer effective. We are likely stuck under these circumstances, which leads to sufferings. I believe that counseling is a catalyst to facilitate the needed changes & adjustments to get unstuck and to have a meaningful life again.

I've always been drawn to the Serenity Prayer and its timeless significance to everyday life - anywhere - at anytime. Across time I often find my role helping people accept what they cannot change. I help them change what they can through identification of their own resources with any input I can provide through my education, training and experience. Together we collaborate for "wisdom to know the difference." My background as a Social Worker, Child Mental Health Specialist, and Clinical Psychologist has given me the depth and breadth to work with most any challenge brought my way.

I specialize in helping men who struggle with isolation, feelings of anxiety and depression, blocks to intimacy, addiction to pornography, lack of male friends, a feeling of being lost or without a deep sense of purpose, or feeling numb and disconnected from life. As men, we are socialized to keep everything to ourselves, which makes it hard for us to admit when we're lonely and hurting and in need of support. Many of us grew up with fathers that were either absent, abusive, or detached from us emotionally, leaving us without a respectable model of masculinity and without much inspiration or direction in our lives.
