Are you stressed? Is your body speaking to you with hard to understand symptoms? There's a tension that remains when a task is incomplete. This tension is not only related to the projects we have yet to complete but also relates to the internal tension from not speaking our truth.

Are you sick and tired of feeling anxious, worried or depressed all the time? Discouraged that your own efforts to change things only leave you stuck? And then downing yourself on top of that? Are you living only a part of the life that you wish you could have? Well, anyone can fall into those traps. You don't have to figure it all out by yourself. And trying harder isn't the solution. Trying “different” is. Learning and practicing new skills is your ticket out. I can help you identify the traps and make best use of new/different skills and strategies.

Sometimes life presents us with difficult challenges and we feel lost. We may be haunted by trauma, feel stuck in relationships, have negative thoughts cycling around in our minds, and find that we are sabotaging ourselves. Changing life circumstances-both positive (like the birth of a child) or negative (loss of a job)-can cause anxiety and despair. I address these issues by fostering a warm and trusting therapeutic relationship where clients become more aware of their thoughts and feelings, make sense of their experiences, and move forward in their lives.

We all have challenges in our lives. Sometimes these challenges can be overwhelming, leading to feelings of worry and anxiety. At other times, these challenges can lead to depression and despair. I am here to listen. I am here to support you. I am here to give you the tools that you need to make needed changes. Together, we can explore possibilities and find the motivation for change that you have inside of you.

Whether confronting childhood trauma resurfacing in adulthood or seeking personal growth, I prioritize leveraging individual strengths to facilitate progress. We are all trying to achieve something in life. We all want better for ourselves. Life can be hectic at times and throw curveballs at us. We are required to adapt to the various obstacles that we come across.

Welcome. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. My view of therapy is that you are your own best expert. As Carl Rogers said, “As no one else can know how we perceive, we are the best experts on ourselves”. My role is to help empower you to overcome the obstacles that have been impeding you from making the changes necessary to meet your goals and live your best life.

Depression, anxiety, addictive and compulsive behaviors, relationship conflicts, loneliness, life changes, indecision, performance issues, impulsivity, stress and frustration...We all struggle with something; it is part of the human condition. At times, it is more than we can deal with and manage on our own. I strive to create a comfortable environment for my clients, as we work together to understand what is troubling you and identify the steps you may take toward realizing the life you envision.

First thing we do is discuss the presenting issue. The homework is to complete a personality style questionnaire that is key in helping to focus on the work. Then we see how the personality works with the presenting issue. Then we set up a way to address the issue that is tailored to the personality style. I assign common sense realistic ways for you to be able to use that will result in an immediate healthy sense of well being. I do individual and relationship counseling. I have the life and professional experience needed to help you.

I enjoy helping Teens & Adults develop their personal strengths and learn to use their creativity for growth and healing. My ideal client is someone who is looking to heal from past trauma, learn to manage anxiety, or improve current relationships and quality of life.

When working with clients, I offer a welcoming and strength-based environment to facilitate self-understanding and growth. Key ingredients to start the healing journey come from genuine connection and the space to be your authentic self. I can help you unlock your potential and encourage lasting change. I hope to join you on your journey to acknowledge, experience, and embrace the reality of life, with all its pleasures and heartbreak.
