Great to meet you!

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who has been working with therapy clients for more than a quarter century. My BA was earned at the University of Michigan with a major in psychology and a focus on pre-med. I completed my doctorate in psychology the California School of Professional Psychology. I have significant experience working with depression and anxiety, addiction, and relationship problems. I also work with athletes as a sports psychologist.

My approach to therapy

I approach therapy with much empathy as well as curiosity. I want the alien to feel seen, heard and understood. With this environment the client can feel free to express feelings and thoughts.

What you can expect from me

As each person is unique, I do my best to adapt the sessions to best fit their needs. Clients tend to suffer less as well gain insight and self awareness through our work. Ultimately clients often increase their resilience and empathy for themselves leading to more meaningful lives.
