Welcome and congratulations on taking this step to prioritizing yourself and your mental health! As a clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience, I have witnessed over and over again how empowering it can be to take charge of your mental health. Throughout the years, I have worked with a wide variety of clients and issues, but now focus my work on serving adolescents and adults with trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and women's issues.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in anxiety, or repeating patterns in relationships that you can’t seem to break, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.
With over 25 years of experience, I work with adults, teens, and couples to better understand what’s driving their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors—and how to create meaningful, lasting change. My approach is tailored to you: supportive and collaborative, while also gently challenging you to grow, even when it feels uncomfortable.
Therapy is a process of change and transformation. I’ll walk alongside you as we work toward greater clarity, stronger relationships, and an overall improved quality of life
I work with adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions and grief. Many of my clients feel stuck or unsure how to move forward, whether that involves improving focus and follow-through, coping with loss, or navigating changes in mood and life circumstances.
You may be overwhelmed, struggling to stay focused, or going through a difficult change in your life that makes you feel stressed out.
With over 30 years of experience in healthcare as both a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Nurse, I bring a practical understanding of how physical, emotional, and mental health are connected, especially for adults managing ADHD, focus challenges, and overwhelm.
