Change is possible, and I believe I can help. I conducted my doctoral studies at Adler University in Chicago where I was trained as a general practitioner to treat a wide variety of presenting issues across the lifespan. I have experience practicing in many settings including inpatient units, forensic sites, community mental health centers, and in private practice throughout the course of my career.

I view psychotherapy as a process of growth that occurs both through self-exploration and experiential learning. I strive to create a compassionate therapeutic environment that promotes reflection, understanding, and change. Through creating an atmosphere that balances safety and challenge, I encourage people to face and overcome their distress. Through this process of discovery, life becomes more satisfying when you gain more influence over how you experience yourself, others, and the world.

It generally takes some time to establish a working alliance. This means that from the onset, my goal is that we will endeavor to come to shared understanding of:

What is wrong and what would you like to change?

Why now?

How can therapy help you meet your goals?

Although therapy can be a lengthy process, some people report some relief after the initial appointment.
