Speaking to someone about a problem can be a difficult thing to do; especially when that someone is new. My goal as a cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic clinician is to develop a relationship that will allow you to be comfortable; develop objectives; and ultimately address root problems resulting in negative emotions. During my time as both a licensed clinical and school psychologist; I have comprehensively evaluated and developed treatment plans for children; teens; and adults experiencing academic; behavioral; and social difficulties; anxiety; depression; stress; as well as relationship and family discord.

It can be difficult navigating life on your own and sometimes we could all use a little extra help and support. We will work together to set your goals; process how you’re feeling; and discuss what you would like to leave behind. We can work on feeling more confident; strengthening relationships; managing stressors and/or overcoming anxiety. I’m honored to assist you on your path to making positive changes in your life.
