"Anything that's human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone" -- Fred Rogers. This is exactly what the therapeutic relationship provides.   I have over 23 years of clinical experience working with people who have felt like you may be feeling today. Whether you struggle with an eating disorder to manage your emotions, feel unable to communicate with your loved-ones, or are haunted by past hurts, I want to help you along your path to healing. Taking the next step is brave and it does not have to be difficult. I offer a variety of in-person and telehealth appointment options throughout the week including evenings and Saturdays. Please visit my website or reach out by email to schedule a complimentary 15 minute phone consultation.

I am a licensed psychologist working with adults and couples. I specialize in relationship issues, women’s issues, anxiety & depression, and life transitions.

I am a pre-licensed Mental Health Counselor employed at Cedar Tree Wellness Center. The kind of therapy I provide is called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT operates on the principle that our thoughts, feelings and behaviors are all linked. What I do in therapy is work with the client to challenge the irrational/negative thoughts that lead to mental conditions such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, etc. So many of us believe that we can solve our problems on your own, sometimes we can. However, there are many of us who require assistance, and that is nothing to be ashamed of. Needing help and asking for it does not make someone weak, it makes them stronger than most.
