Welcome.
Finding the right fit is important when choosing a mental health provider. My approach to therapy is simple. I focus on the areas that are important to each person and work with them to promote a meaningful quality of life.
I specialize in coping with acute and chronic medical problems. This includes management of chronic pain, adapting to different stages of cognitive impairment, and promotion of healthy lifestyles. I use evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in my practice, which have been shown to work with individuals of all ages.
I individually tailor evidence-based treatments and design a plan to help you discover ways to move toward the life you want. We are all different, and the therapy you receive should reflect who you are and what you're personally looking for.
