“I am a caring, empathetic psychologist who has considerable skills in helping people through crisis. I use a blend of exploration of past experience combined with practical, concrete advice and techniques for how to best grapple with current issues. My strengths are my intuitive understanding of people and their often deep-rooted issues, my ability to translate this understanding into a plan of action, and my gift for tailoring each treatment to each individual. I believe in being interactive and giving feedback and direction, but also believe in each individual's capacity to set their own goals and measures of success.

I work with people who are unhappy in their relationships or work, who may be in need of direction for school or career, in the midst of life transitions, or have self-sabotaging behaviors such as substance abuse and anger management issues.

I have significant experience in treating various illnesses from anxiety and depression, to trauma, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. I focus on results, often take a coaching approach, and believe in using a good dose of humor to help people feel better about themselves.
