Great to meet you!

Welcome! I am a licensed clinical psychologist with expertise in the treatment of a wide array of mental health difficulties. People come to me with relationship problems, work issues, stress and other life challenges. In addition, I see individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma and other more serious disorders. I bring warmth, intelligence and an easy going manner to everyone I see. Reach out and let's see if I'm the right fit for you.

My approach to therapy

Therapy is a conversation, two people sitting and talking. I bring my training and experience to our conversations to learn about who you are and the issues you want to talk about. I use a blend of psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral techniques to open up new ways of thinking about problems, understand emotional life more fully and create practical steps that lead to positive life changes.

What you can expect from me

We will work together to identify the changes you would like to see in yourself and the goals you want to achieve. We'll spot where you're repeating what doesn't work, where you're hanging on to old emotions and ideas that no longer serve you and we'll create new ways to think and act to get you to where you want to be.
