Hello there...I'm an experienced therapist with a large "tool kit." This enables me to tailor therapy to YOU, since no single approach works for all problems and all people. I've been trained in Gestalt therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, NET (Neuro-emotional technique), EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), family therapy and EFFT (Emotion Focused Family Therapy), and hypnosis.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist working primarily with adolescents, families with younger children, and adults struggling with family relationships. I see many children presenting with oppositional and defiant behaviors, overcoming trauma and abuse, or suffering from significant mood dysregulation, each of which can put a whole family in distress. My work with adults generally focuses on issues of marital relationships, divorces, and parenting. I help people resolve conflicts, improve communication, and change unproductive habits. I also often treat anxiety and stress related to work, trauma, and relationships.

Insight. Strategies. Problem Solving. Coaching. Support. I draw on over 20 years of experience working with adults, teens, and children to help clients with issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and Asperger's/Autism Spectrum. My therapy is focused on increasing insight and taking small steps that lead to positive changes. It is collaborative, strengths-based, goal-oriented, and structured to produce results in weeks to months, not years. I can help with issues such as stress management, motivation, organization, coping skills, self-esteem, social skills, communication issues in relationships, and life direction.

In my work with adolescents, young adults, and adults, I assist them in understanding their feelings and behaviors in everyday life. I help them learn how to deal with their anxiety, family conflict, self-esteem issues, ADHD symptoms, and depression. I teach them tools to use in difficult situations in school, at home, and socially. Sometimes, clients experience depersonalization, where they are shut down from their emotions, which can result in feeling numb or a lack of motivation, so I will work with the client to help them "feel" again, and I teach them techniques and skills to manage daily stress or triggers.

Are you "worrying" often? Do you feel uncomfortable in social settings? Feeling sad, frustrated/angry and having difficulty managing it? Are you a parent concerned about your child's behavior? Or in a relationship/marriage that is unfulfilling or not what it use to be? Is your family not accepting of your life choices? Counseling is a great opportunity to work through long standing concerns or just talk about what is going on in your life right now.

Thank you for your interest in our counseling services! We bring a personable, down-to-earth, insightful and inviting approach to our work with individuals, couples and families. We value helping people move from "feeling stuck" in unhealthy relational patterns to experiencing greater freedom in their personal lives and relationships. Clients benefit from setting aside focused time to understand what drives these patterns via the lens of attachment needs. Thinking through and verbalizing new and different ways to engage in healthy relationships within the context of a safe, supportive and therapeutic environment can be invaluable.

The relationships we have can significantly impact our mental and emotional health. Relationship challenges can impact us to the point where day to day functioning can be difficult. Sometimes, we do everything we can to resolve relationship challenges, but they still remain. In these moments it can be helpful to involve external support to help resolve presenting issues. If this sounds like you, working with a relationship therapist can be just what you need. Whether you are looking for a individual, couple, or family therapist; I am more than willing to partner with you at this stage of your life journey.
