Hello and thank you for looking at my profile. My approach to providing therapy is to Keep. It. Simple.

I focus on the mind-body connection to help you understand why things feel the way they do, how our brain and body interpret certain feelings and experiences, and then what you can do to try to manage those feelings and make situations feel more comfortable and under control.

I specialize working with adolescents, but welcome all ages and genders. My main areas of clinical focus are in mood disorders such as depression and anxiety.

Are you going through a major life change and feeling unsure of what comes next? Maybe you're adjusting to an empty nest, a career change, retirement, or the loss of someone important to you. These changes can bring feelings of worry, sadness, loneliness, or uncertainty about who you are and what you want from life.


I help adults in midlife and later life work through these challenges with greater confidence and peace of mind. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, family concerns, or changes in your health, you don't have to figure everything out on your own.


My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and better able to handle life's ups and downs. Together, we'll explore what matters most to you, build practical tools to manage stress, and find ways to bring more meaning and joy into your life.


I believe that even difficult changes can lead to new opportunities for growth. With compassion, understanding, and years of experience, I'm here to help you move forward in a way that feels right for you.

Maybe you're carrying something you've never said out loud. Maybe you look fine from the outside and feel worn down underneath it. Either way, you don't need to arrive with the right words or an explanation.

I'm a Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience. I work with people living with trauma and PTSD, including the aftermath of crime and moments of real crisis. A lot of my work also deals with the weight people carry from what the world expects of them: the pressures that come with being a woman or a man, the small daily slights, discrimination, and inequality that add up over the years.

Outside of session you'll usually find me running, on a yoga mat, or watching basketball. I'm convinced cooking and gardening count as therapy too.
