About

Greetings, As a clinical psychologist with over 30 years of experience, I am prepared to help you address common psychological struggles. By guiding you to identify triggers and maladaptive behaviors, we can develop coping strategies to alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression. If there are underlying trauma issues, I have extensive experience working with those situations as well. Additionally, I have helped many clients struggling with behavioral medicine issues such as weight management, poor sleep, smoking cessation, and substance use. Once coping skills are in place to enhance functioning and help you feel a greater sense of control, we can explore your personal history and underlying factors which contribute to your difficulties, if desired. At regular intervals, we will evaluate your need and preference for ongoing therapy. Thus, treatment will be tailored for a limited problem-focused approach or an in-depth approach as warranted. I believe that a collaborative effort in therapy leads to the best outcome. You may be asked to track thoughts and behaviors for review in the sessions. Completing homework assignments are an important component of treatment. I look forward to being with you on your wellness and recovery journey.
