Great to meet you!

As a licensed psychologist with over twenty-five years of professional experience, I work collaboratively with individuals helping them overcome challenges in life which can quickly spiral into depression or anxiety. I am real and direct as a professional, maintaining a calm and helpful stance, offering practical interventions individuals can use in every day life as well as to process the impact of early childhood issues. My areas of specialization are trauma and anxiety disorders, as well as depression and disorders of childhood/adolescence. I work with children and adults individually as well as in family sessions.

My approach to therapy

Although I have received extensive training and education in psychodynamic approaches to psychotherapy, I tended to be more cognitive-behavioral in my approaches to interventions with clients

What you can expect from me

Individuals value their time with me and find it both enlightening and empowering with practical tools to address the challenges they are facing in everyday life.
