Are you feeling overwhelmed by unanswered questions about your mental health? Are you concerned about wasting your time and money with ineffective treatment? If you are concerned that you have ADHD, OCD, PTSD, Bipolar, or if you are just unsatisfied with life, some people just don’t know where to begin, and most importantly, how to move forward. It is my job to be the first point of contact for individuals seeking just that. I am a clinical psychologist who specializes in providing psychological assessment services to (1) identify what the challenges are (2) refer you to a therapist that will best resonate with you. For me to achieve this, I emphasize the importance of a holistic approach in understanding all aspects of your life. With years of experience and a passion for helping individuals unravel the complexities of their lives, I am here to ensure that you begin your mental health journey with confidence and assurance that the services that you are being provided are best tailored to you. Unfortunately I am unable to accept long-term therapy clients at this time. However, I am able to provide evidence-based evaluations to address your unique needs and goals. Next, armed with a comprehensive understanding of your psychological profile, I will collaborate with you to create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. Whether you require cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychoanalysis, or medication management, I will help you find a provider that we think will give you the best results. Taking the first step can be the most difficult part of working on yourself. Take control of your mental health journey – reach out now and together we’ll start your path towards positive change.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In your first session, you can expect a warm and welcoming environment where your concerns will be met with empathy and non-judgment. This initial meeting serves as a space for you to share your story, discuss your goals, and express the challenges you're facing. I will work collaboratively with you to understand your unique needs, helping to establish a foundation of trust and openness. Together, we'll explore the therapeutic process and discuss potential approaches tailored to your situation. The first session is an opportunity for connection, assessment, and the beginning of a supportive partnership on your journey towards personal growth and positive change.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a therapist, my greatest strength lies in my patient-centered approach to therapy. People are the experts in themselves, possessing a wealth of unique knowledge, experiences, and perspectives that shape their individual journeys. As a clinician, my role is to honor and collaborate with each person's innate wisdom. By fostering a supportive and non-judgmental space, individuals and couples can explore their own narratives, strengths, and challenges. I believe that the most meaningful and sustainable growth arises from empowering individuals and couples to tap into their own expertise, guiding them to discover their innate capacity for resilience, self-discovery, and positive change.

My treatment methods

Psychological Testing And Evaluation

My approach is centered on precision and accuracy, ensuring that you receive an accurate diagnosis and a clear understanding of your psychological profile. A correct diagnosis helps individuals, and their loved ones understand the nature of the condition they are dealing with. It also provides clarity on symptoms, potential triggers, and prognosis. Armed with this invaluable insight, you'll be empowered to make informed decisions about your mental health journey. I also do evaluations for Emotional Support Animals (ESA). However, most insurances do not cover this type of session because it is not considered "medically necessary." If you are only interested in getting an ESA evaluation, I charge a one-time fee of $100 cash.
