My Approach to Helping

I'm a psychologist who does therapy myself but also runs the Institute for Personal Growth/IPG Counseling. We believe that people come to therapy with the power to heal themselves, that there is an inner guiding light that will take them to their goals. It's our job to help you unleash your own power and find the light within you. We keep ourselves trained in the most current evidence-based techniques while understanding that, in the end, it is the person-to-person connection that makes therapy and healing possible. We know that compassion, understanding, and wisdom are as important in therapy as skill.
