I am a licensed clinical psychologist. I have been licensed and practicing for 27 years.
My areas of expertise include trauma, family of origin issues, relationship issues, depression, anxiety, and just being stuck in patterns that are dysfunctional or create problems in a person’s life.
I look at the multiple areas that make up a person's life to understand how each part contributes to the person’s state of mind or situation. For example, we may focus on feelings, behaviors, thoughts about oneself or particular situations, how emotion is expressed (or not), or the impact of the past (such as traumatic events or one’s family of origin) on current living. In addition, we may examine different areas of health, such as exercise, medical care, stress relief, social support, attaining goals, etc.
