About

Welcome!   HAPPINESS in this day and age can feel elusive. If you feel overwhelmed, unhappy, stressed, scared, or stuck and want to change, you have come to the right place. As individuals, it can be difficult finding HOPE when you are struggling with depression and/or anxiety.

 

People come to therapy for a variety of reasons. I believe therapy should be practical and approachable, utilizing your strengths to overcome life’s challenges. As a clinical psychologist, I am supportive and challenging, with a sense of humor, and have found this process to be a life changing, transformative one.




I use a wholistic, practical, solution focused approach to treatment derived from evidence based psychological intervention. I provide my patients with a safe, collaborative environment and approach all individuals with compassion and sensitivity. I love working with adolescents and families who are dealing with both mental health and addiction issues.




Patients have told me they felt safe, understood, and respected by my compassionate, nonjudgmental approach experiencing the space to explore and better know themselves in ways they never imagined possible.
