“My philosophy in all of my work focuses on nourishing and enhancing development. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with an extensive training background in mental health, chronic medical issues, and family conflict. With more than twenty years of experience, I have particular expertise in consultation, assessment, and treatment using a client-collaborative approach. I help my clients understand the strengths they possess and challenges they face, which in turn validates their experiences. I then encourage them to develop strategies to reduce the impact of the situation, as well as set goals toward personal growth & fulfillment.
