I work with professionals who find themselves torn between the life they have & the life they want to have. You’ve been playing it safe & doing what’s expected of you, but you’re not quite satisfied. You’re afraid to give your all because you don’t know if you will be able to handle what comes next. The judgment. The pressure. The spotlight. You’ve read lots of self-help books, & tried to DIY the process of change with lackluster results. You’ve tried medication or at least thought about it, but you know it’s just a tool & not a cure-all. You haven’t really had the therapy experience that you needed, but you’re ready to try again. I know that you are doing the best that you can. Even if no one else can see it. Carving out time for yourself can be a challenge when you are always on the go and being pulled in a million directions. Working with me will allow you to leverage my knowledge and expertise as a psychologist so that you can achieve ten times more with less internal conflict, resistance and emotional disturbance. Let's connect and talk more about steering you in the right direction. Working with me will allow you to leverage my knowledge and expertise as a psychologist so that you can work smarter, and not harder. Let's connect and talk more about how to get you moving in the right direction.

Approach Description: In my work, I integrate a variety of approaches depending on what my client needs. Generally, I aim to collaborate with you and emphasize your strengths, even as I support you in working on what’s holding you back. I think true, lasting change comes from making changes across your life — in your thoughts, your actions, and your personal relationships. So my goal is to challenge the thoughts and actions that aren’t serving you anymore, improve the quality of your relationships, and help you quiet that inner critic and live in the moment. To put this all into technical words: My approach is person-centered and strengths-based, and incorporates parts of cognitive behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapy, and mindfulness.
