In today's world, people often find ourselves going from one day to the next by going through the motions, leaving them feeling unfulfilled and overwhelmed. When we encounter life's hurdles, we have difficulty understanding why or how to deal with them. Choosing a therapist to help you navigate obstacles is a personal and courageous choice. The therapy process is where you and I come together to help you on a journey of relief from distress and increased personal growth and happiness. I strive to build authentic, trusting, and long-lasting relationships with my clients.
I work with depression, anxiety, eating/body image, self-esteem, identity development, trauma/abuse, and relationship difficulties. I enjoy helping clients understand/improve their relationships with food/eating habits, develop healthier ways of coping with emotional eating, improve their body image, and overcome obstacles to successful weight loss.
I enjoy helping college/graduate students develop their adult identities and enjoy helping women who are trying to balance all parts of their life. I provide therapy and psychological testing, including the assessment of personality and emotional functioning. I also provide psychological evaluations for clients who are in the process of adopting a child.
