A child’s occupation is to play and socialize with same aged peers. A child’s ability to fully engage in play or socialize with others at his/her highest level of functioning can be challenging due to factors such as sensory processing, behavioral, and mental health limitations. Participation in meaningful occupations is vital to mental health and well-being. As an Occupational Therapist, I provide comprehensive services which include an evaluation of the child’s current skill set to assess age appropriate development in the areas of fine/gross motor skills, cognition and executive functioning, life skills, and sensory modulation.

To that end, I strive to facilitate an experience for you of change in those aspects of your life that are most meaningful to you, including your inner world, relationships, spiritual beliefs, work life and world views.

Tired of enduring a difficult life, career or relationship? Looking for practical, out-of-the-box solutions for anxiety, depression, and the life circumstances that cause them?

For 35 years, I have been augmenting traditional therapeutic methods with a variety of techniques, including EMDR Therapy, CRM Therapy, heart rate variability training (Heartmath), body centered approaches, mindfulness training, hypnosis, and ego-state interventions, to facilitate deep internal changes.

You try to be a good person and want more from life yet sometimes it feels like you're just going through the motions. You're functioning, but there's always that voice—the one telling you that you’re not good enough, don’t deserve love, peace or happiness, deserved what happened to you, and that this is it in life. Your unresolved “stuff”–the anxiety, self-doubt, trauma–keeps popping up at the most inconvenient time and causing you trouble. Relationships are hard. You can’t really relax. Anger eats at you. You’re tired of feeling “stuck” and uneasy in your own mind and body. What you really want is to finally feel at peace.

I'm looking for clients coping with mental illnesses and living healthy lifestyles. I have experiences working in both inpatient and outpatient settings and can help you learn how to function at your best.
