Great to meet you!

Did you experience trauma in childhood or adolescence? Are you experiencing stress, anxiety, fear, or depression? Do you feel misunderstood by others, judged, or find it challenging to connect with others? Therapy is a safe place where you can understand yourself better and learn to cope with these thoughts and feelings, which may be interfering with your happiness, health, and relationships.

My approach to therapy

My approach to evaluation and treatment is evidence-based, trauma-informed, person-centered, and strengths-focused; I consider individual, social, and family strengths and positive adaptations to stress, such as personal and spiritual growth, creativity, genuineness, empathy, bravery, grit, and determination

What you can expect from me

I am a licensed and board-certified psychologist, university professor, researcher, and writer experienced in providing counseling and evaluations for trauma, depression, anxiety/social anxiety, shyness, emotional sensitivity, anger, GLBTQ, giftedness, PTSD, and helping individuals communicate effectively—call, email, or text for more information.
