Seeking help when life gets difficult can feel overwhelming. Congratulations on taking that first step! I have been a licensed clinical psychologist for over 25 years and specialize in working with adults who experience anxiety; depression; trauma history; severe mental illness and/or substance use issues. I work from a strength-based and trauma-informed perspective.
I tend to have a warm interpersonal style and strive to help you feel safe, understood and supported. I like to learn what is important to you and maybe even help figure that out...sometimes people have lost focus on what they value most in their day-to-day busyness. We will explore what is working, what is not and what growth might look like for you.
I have training and skill in providing some evidence-based short-term therapies and also realize that some people benefit from longer-term more interpersonal work. The initial consultation can help determine if we think there is a good fit for us to work together and then we'll schedule an initial session to clarify your values and goals and how we want to move forward.
