Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Psychologist with over 20 years experience. I received my PhD in Clinical Psychology from Drexel University in 2004. I have helped many adults to cope with stress and anxiety, trauma, depression and mood problems, chronic health issues, relationship problems, and work-life balance. I also have extensive background working with military personnel, veterans, and their families.

My approach to therapy

My style is collaborative and compassionate. It is my belief that you are the expert on you. But, you may be coming to therapy because you feel stuck and unsure how to move forward. I use methods such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, which can help you to understand how your perspective on life events can influence how you feel and what you do. I also like to utilize mindfulness and emotion-focused approaches that can help you manage your emotions in a healthy and productive way.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we will discuss what brings you to therapy and identify where you would like to see changes. Most importantly, I want to you feel understood, safe, and comfortable to talk about your problems. I will help you to set some initial goals for therapy and we will begin to talk about ways that we can address your concerns.
