ABOUT THERAPY
Guiding You On the Path of Self-Healing and Flourishing
For therapy to work best, your first step is to find a therapist who matches well with you and your needs. If you are interested in taking a collaborative approach to explore your current life questions and to improve your situation, you may have found that match in me. I strive to be an empowering and trusted source of optimistic and productive approaches to problems. My specialty of performance psychology can be expanded beyond athletes and musicians, to benefit anyone who is searching for ways to improve quality of life. Please contact me to set up a phone consultation.

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
My approach to counseling is empathic, practical and collaborative. According to the American Psychological Association, “Psychologists help people of all ages live happier, healthier and more productive lives” and that's exactly what I am aiming for. You will receive constructive feedback and pragmatic suggestions on how to enhance your quality of life. My training and experience has been broad and has included counseling individuals with a wide range of mental illness and doing performance training for musicians and athletes.
PERFORMANCE STRATEGIES
If you are a musician or athlete and are looking for help to perform better under pressure, mind-based performance strategies can offer you helpful techniques. With years of training as both a professional musician and a licensed psychologist, I have developed strategies to enhance practice effectiveness and time management, boost concentration, conquer performance anxiety and create an optimal performance profile. I specialize in helping musicians, and I also consult with individuals who are striving for excellence in the performing arts, sports, business, and general public speaking.
