I am a psychotherapist who works with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. My staff and I work to provide a safe nurturing, non-judgmental atmosphere focusing on the individual client's needs. I have been practicing for over 25 years. My experience has focused on children and adolescents with PTSD, ADHD, Asperger's/Autism Spectrum, Depression, Teen Issues, Anxiety Disorders, OCD, Family Struggles, and Trauma. I work with a wonderful team of other compassionate and caring professionals who share my same passion for helping others. I offer teletherapy sessions.

My associates and I work with a large range of clients struggling with challenges throughout different life stages. Since the practice focuses on the individual, my associates and I utilize an eclectic approach, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Object Relations, and Ego Strengths/Supportive Psychotherapy.

I offer group therapy, including children and adolescent groups, social skills groups, teen issues groups, bereavement groups, and psychoeducational groups for parents, couples, and groups for young adults (20's). I offer Skype therapy sessions. I also work closely with a Medicinal Marijuana doctor and am able to perform evaluations.
