My aim is to create a warm, judgement free, safe space for you to understand yourself better. I see therapy as a journey between two people. At times the journey can feel daunting, overwhelming, and challenging, and I am here to help make the burden a little easier to bear. I work with individuals of all backgrounds and of various ages, coping with trauma, depression, anxiety, interpersonal and relationship struggles, work stress, stage of life transitions, and more. I have been on my own therapy journey too, so I understand what it is like to be on the "other side" of the room. I aim to use my own experience in therapy to bring empathy and compassion to your therapy journey.

I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology in 2002. Having worked in healthcare and academic settings, I appreciate being part of a treatment team and am available to coordinate care with other providers when beneficial. Rather than see 'how many problems' a person may be facing... I see 'how many ways things can get better'. I value working with folks to see their puzzle from a different angle and to use tools to clarify, change and improve the picture.
