Meet the Psychologist
I work collaboratively with people of all ages to remove the roadblocks that stand in the way of realizing their full potential. I believe that all people have the ability to flourish given the appropriate amount of encouragement, knowledge, and support. When working with children, adolescents, adults, and families, I attempt to provide a warm, safe environment where my clients feel comfortable to grow at their own pace. Each person’s journey toward change is unique, and I enjoy engaging clients in the process of achieving their individual goals.
While I draw from a variety of therapeutic strategies tailored to the needs of each client I frequently apply Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I believe that individuals are affected by the broader systems around them, such as friends, family, school, and the workplace. I have a strong background in and enjoy working with children and young adults either in a group or individual setting in order to ensure the most positive and sustained change possible.
