I am a second generation Therapist with over 20 years of experience in the field of Mental Health Treatment. I find my work to be incredibly fulfilling and enjoy helping people reach their goals. Over the years I have recognized that many clients do present with similar issues. Often they are unhappy at work or feeling unfulfilled in their relationships. This typically leads to negative coping skills and unhealthy habits which result in not living up to their potential. I help people understand patterns of thinking and behaving that are not working for them. As we work together to make changes it has a positive snowball effect.

I have over 25 years of experience doing psychotherapy. I trained with experts at Johns Hopkins Medical School and UCLA. I work with individuals and couples who are experiencing problems in daily living or just dissatisfaction with quality of life, going through transitions as they age, change jobs, being in or out of relationship, going through separation, divorce, even death of a partner, or approaching dating after a loss. I have years of experience dealing with adjustment to chronic disease, including many forms of cancer, AIDS/HIV, being dialysis dependent, multiple surgeries, or facing and living with organ transplant.

*Telehealth Only* Helping people create positive change in their lives is something I value highly and am lucky to do for a living. I work with adults on managing many of life's ups and downs, mental illnesses, and self-growth adventures. Everyone has a different story and unique requirements for therapy, so my eclectic style of therapy will adapt to someone's needs. Whether it's a major life transition, depression, anxiety or trauma...if you are ready to work hard, I am too! My goal is to build a trusting therapeutic alliance to show how vulnerability can be someone's greatest strength and the catalyst for growth and change.

For better or worse our early relationships strongly impact our emotional experiences as adults, often in ways we do not understand. If you're dissatisfied in your life, you probably have tried to find solutions on your own before considering contacting a therapist. Or maybe you tried therapy and it only helped you temporarily or partially, but never got to the heart of the problem. I work with adults and couples facing challenges and who seek a deeper understanding of themselves. There is a biological need to feel understood that exists within all of us, which is where our emotional life exists.

Often times the process consists of building a trusting relationship that allows me to accurately asses needs, utilize interventions that fit each individual, and set achievable goals that build motivation and momentum for the client. Some of the greatest joys are watching client's victories as they conquer goal after goal!

I have a high success rate with patients who are diagnosed with grief, post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety and anger issues. I have personal experience and recovery from the effects of trauma.
