My Approach to Therapy
As a psychologist, I first want to get to know you, not just your problems. We'll work together to find solutions that fit your needs, your style, and your interests. I'll ask for specific feedback from you to help us determine how to proceed in therapy, striving to help you get the most out of each session.
My Practice & Services
If you're interested in learning more about therapy, or just talking for a few minutes to talk, please call the office and we'll set up a time for a free phone consultation.
Important Factors for Choosing a Therapist
A lot of my clients have had previous experiences with therapy - some great; and some, not so much. When you're looking for a therapist, counselor or psychologist, take the time to get to know them, and ask yourself if they feel like a good fit for you. Do you feel understood, respected, and comfortable? Do they seem to know what you're talking about, and how to treat your concerns? Do they ask you for feedback regarding your experience of therapy, your needs, and your goals? You have many choices, and the decision is yours.

Groups I Work With
I specialize in working with people who have been let down and betrayed by the people who were supposed to care for them, over and over again. They're often feeling alone, helpless, and scared - and they've been feeling this way for a long time.
