Therapist Overview
I am a clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience in private practice and inpatient settings. I see psychotherapy as a journey of self-discovery and self-understanding with the goal being to liberate the individual from those conflicts and difficulties that limit their happiness, well-being, and fulfillment. I do psychological evaluations and psychotherapy. I have experience dealing with most psychological issues and difficulties: anxiety, depression, trauma, childhood emotional pain, ADHD, and other issues. The therapeutic session is a place of safety and acceptance, a place in which one can explore and understand deeper inner conflicts, painful self-experiences, and problematic relationships and situations. Therapy is a unique dialogue between the client and the therapist, with the shared goal of reducing suffering and enhancing freedom and meaning.
