Learning to view a glass as half-full rather than
          half-empty, redefining problems as opportunities
     for growth, or increasing one’s confidence
to view more options as viable might be the
           new perspective that works in your situation.

Interests

I am a clinical psychologist who has been helping children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families since 1990.  I specialize in the treatment of depression, anxiety, ADHD (adult and children), and the after-effects of severe trauma and abuse.  In addition, I have experience helping parents learn new parenting techniques to raise children with learning problems, attention problems, or difficulty regulating emotions. As part of my practice, I also complete pre-surgery psychological evaluations for people pursuing bariatric surgery, as well as offer psychotherapy (before or after the surgery) to help people adjust to the changes required.  In general, I approach change from a cognitive-behavioral perspective, and work to help people learn new ways to think about themselves and their lives, which, in turn, helps them to achieve their goals.
