Welcome

Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being.

I would like to take the time to welcome you to my practice. I value my patients and the rights they have when they enter therapy. Psychotherapy is not easily described in general statements. It varies depending on the personalities of the therapist and patient, as well as the particular problems you discuss. There are many different methods that I may use to deal with the problems that you hope to address. Psychotherapy is not like a medical doctor visit. Instead, it requires a very active effort on your part . In order for the therapy to be most successful, you will have to work on things we talk about both during our sessions and at home.

It is the mission of my practice to provide the highest quality of application of theory, methodology, and empirical research in a culturally sensitive manner to the treatment of psychological, behavioral, and emotional difficulties. It is the goal of the practice to improve the quality of your life and to develop excellent psychological services that are valued by clients, professionals and the community.

As a psychologist, my goal is to is to understand you as a whole person and not just as a set of symptoms and problems. By applying evidenced based therapies, empirically derived methodologies, and a strong working, professional relationship the hope is that perceptions, attitudes, beliefs and feelings that hold you back or lead to feeling "stuck" will likely be diminished and/or resolved and help you to achieve your goal.

If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you are just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

Please call or email me if you have any questions about the practice or if you would like to schedule an appointment.
