My career has included time as a social worker, helping patients and families navigate cancer and traumatic brain injuries; and as a therapist, supporting individuals in pursuit of better mental health. Along the way, I began facilitating ad-hoc stress relief practices for my colleagues in the helping professions. I began to see that the healthcare workers, teachers, first responders, veterans and so on, were struggling with their own well-being while working tirelessly to serve others. Most of us are serving in helping roles in more than one area of our lives, beyond our work, we are caregivers, parents, volunteers, etc. While this can be rewarding, it can also be exhausting, overwhelming and lonely. It can lead many of us into a state of 'dis-ease.' I would love to help you find your way back to your WHOLE self.

I am a licensed neuropsychologist who holds the perspective that everyone has a vibration that needs to be heard and understood. With that as a central principle, I invite you to explore your right to be well through the process of being heard. While various forms of psychological assessment have been a large part of my practice for more than 20 years, I have found that my experience in this area has been useful in helping provide practical solutions to problems as well as insights. In this way, I make use of various treatment approaches to foster a sense of acceptance, validation, and clarity.

Living with a medical condition or physical disability often means carrying a weight that others don’t see or understand. The exhaustion of balancing health needs with daily life, the frustration of feeling misunderstood, and the toll of uncertainty can be immense. I have a deep personal understanding of these challenges. In our work, we’ll create a space to acknowledge the full complexity of your experience. We’ll also focus on reconnecting with your sense of self, adapting to life’s shifts, and cultivating a life that feels meaningful and grounded, even in the midst of difficulty. You don't have to let the challenges define you.
