Whether you have a specific life goal or hurdle you are working on or if you are struggling with things like depression, anxiety, trauma, anger, addiction, relationship issues, or career-related struggles, I would love to help.
Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

Are you feeling stuck or confused? Struggling with anxiety or depression? Do you find yourself going over certain events or conversations from the past? At some point, we all experience difficulties and unpleasant feelings and emotions in life. You can learn to navigate these and find relief. My clients often say they haven't worked with a therapist like me before. You can expect direct communication and a clear plan for helping you move forward with your life from an optimal state.
I specialize in working with individuals and familes recovering from injury. I understand the complex challenges involved in recovery from moderate to severe brain injury, concussion, spinal cord injury, chronic illness, long-term COVID recovery, persistent pain, and other neurological or orthopedic injuries. Additionally, I work with people who are struggling with depression and anxiety, as well as individuals striving for personal growth.
Perhaps you have achieved highly or developed habits of perfectionism, and yet there is still something missing. You drive yourself hard, critique each move, but this never gets you any further. Maybe you win the affections of others and yet you still feel empty. If you feel stuck, I am here to help. Everyone needs an extra set of eyes once in a while! I am a psychologist with a specialty in treating high achieving adults with trauma/burnout and generalist training in depression/anxiety.
