I’m a good fit for students who get trapped in their head—overthinking everything, replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions, or feeling like they can’t relax unless everything is “handled.” You might be high-achieving, but constantly stressed, exhausted, or scared of messing up. Sometimes that turns into procrastination, avoidance, or feeling numb. In therapy, we’ll focus on helping you calm the mental noise, handle stress more effectively, and build confidence in your choices—so school and life don’t feel like a constant emergency.

Finding the right therapist is an important and thoughtful process. You want to find someone who ‘gets’ you, and who you can trust to be straightforward with you about your role in problems, and what steps you need to take. You want a person with solid credentials and experience, yet who is open, willing to listen, and who will consider a variety of treatment options with you. Clients have told me they appreciate my straightforwardness and compassion. I would characterize myself as contemplative and thoughtful, yet I am not the kind of therapist who will leave you ‘on the couch’ while I utter “mm-hmm”. I like to balance insight with concrete information and skills you can use to work between sessions. My goal is to foster respectful and collaborative partnerships with clients who are motivated to make changes in their lives. Being a psychologist has special meaning to me, and I care deeply about my work. I hope this offers helpful information as you search for your therapist, and would welcome you to contact me for a consultation.

Life is stressful. Change and acceptance are difficult & sometimes seem downright impossible. As a psychotherapist my goal is to help you: feel supported; gain confidence; & cope with life's-stressors. Together we will create a flexible treatment plan 'tailor-made' for you. You will gain insight, learn coping skills, feel and become self-empowered. I have over 32 years’ experience helping clients/students suffering from anxiety, depression, loss/grief, & relationship issues. My experience also includes teaching all levels of psychology, supervising therapists, and helping people deal with life's transitions. Remember, our sessions will be 'tailor-made' to meet your wants and needs. And, to help me fulfill my promise to you of 'tailor-made sessions,' I adhere to the following mandate of Carl Gustav Jung: "Know your theories well - then place them on the shelf when in a room with the miracle of a human soul." Problems that we cannot 'solve,' together we WILL 'manage.' Phone call inquiries guarantee a response because I check my voicemail frequently. Emails - not as quickly. Please inquire about my sliding scale fee to meet your financial needs.

I often work with young people struggling to understand who they are and why they do the things they do. This may be felt as a gnawing sense of dissatisfaction or despair, or a more intense experience of feeling lost and out of control. We work together to identify your concerns in a safe environment that emphasizes giving language to emotional experience, identifying unconscious patterns of behavior, and finding meaning in your life.

Do you sometimes feel stuck in parts of your life? Do you notice the same problems keep happening in your relationships or career? Therapy provides a space to examine how you perceive yourself and the world. It also helps with discussing and processing difficult and painful feelings. These feelings provide new insight into ways to grow and change. My approach to therapy is based on ingredients proven to help, such as a good connection with your therapist and feeling understood and supported. I'm a graduate of Duke University; I completed my doctorate at Indiana University of Pennsylvania and a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Rochester. Most recently, I was a generalist at Cornell Health, where I focused on interdisciplinary clinical care. I specialize in anxiety, stress, and compulsive habits people develop to cope with them. I know it takes a lot of strength and courage to start this process, and I respect that. We'll schedule our first session during your initial consultation. We'll discuss your current concerns and mental health history in the first session and develop a plan of care that feels right to you. Please visit my webpage to schedule a consultation.

My philosophy in working with others is to work within a respectful and collaborative relationship, with a here-and-now orientation, that acknowledges your strengths and competencies. My belief is that you know yourself better than anyone and it is you who determines your therapy goals. I recognize that change is a process and occurs on a continuum or in stages. Where you are on this continuum will help guide our work supporting a very individualized treatment experience. I approach therapy with a sense of shared expertise - client and therapist each co-creating successful experience and outcome. In other words - you are not alone! I work within an integrated model of care which is strongly influenced and rooted in Relational-Cultural Theory (RCT), positive psychology, harm reduction, mindfulness meditation, self-compassion and acceptance-based approaches all of which are now considered mainstream approaches to psychotherapy. I am also greatly influenced by the evidence-based teachings of Lifestyle Medicine as they impact emotional well-being. I specialize in the treatment of relationship issues including infidelity; depression, anxiety and its spectrum disorders; grief and loss issues, including pet loss; lifestyle and its impact on health and wellness (nutrition, exercise, stress management, sleep and social support), sexuality concerns (including but not limited to those impacting individuals who identify as gay, lesbian or bisexual, gay dads and coming out issues), as well as men dealing with compulsive sexual behavior, erectile dysfunction (ED), Internet pornography; and those living with chronic illness, HIV/AIDS related concerns, alcohol and substance use.

I provide relational, culturally responsive therapy that centers your lived experiences and honors the ways your relationships, history, and identity shape who you are today. I approach therapy as a collaborative space where we can slow down, reflect, and better understand patterns that may be contributing to distress or disconnection. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic and relational cultural therapy. This means I pay close attention to how past and present relationships influence emotions, behaviors, and self-understanding, and how growth often happens through connection, authenticity, and mutual understanding. I also integrate trauma-informed and strengths-based
