Adult Therapy

Utilizing your strengths, I work with you to address issues that are hindering your personal growth.

I am trained in a variety of techniques including cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and family systems therapy. My training and experience has focused on determining what techniques best fit you and your goals and I will tailor my approach to fit you uniquely.

I also have experience in addressing issues of trauma, whether it be related to past childhood trauma and grief or more recent trauma.

I have experience in treating issues related to relationship violence, natural disasters, car accidents, and complicated grief. I have been trained in specific techniques to address these issues including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

I will work with you to process your distressing experiences so that you will be able to move past them to have a productive and happy future. 

In addition to child and adolescent psychological evaluations, I provide psychological evaluations to adults focusing on diagnostic clarity and treatment recommendations.

Sometimes adults are looking for more information and understanding regarding their difficulties or diagnoses or their therapist, psychiatrist, or primary care doctor may suggest an evaluation to assist with diagnosis or recommendations. I can provide a comprehensive psychological evaluation assessing cognitive, academic, social, emotional, and behavioral functioning that can better inform your therapy goals and any medication management.

I also provide adult psychoeducational evaluations. Many adults may be completing academic programs or considering returning to school and may desire a psychological evaluation to best understand their learning strengths and weaknesses.

Many schools will request or require a comprehensive psychoeducational assessment in order for students to qualify for extended time on examinations, testing in a separate room, or for other accommodations that may help you to be most successful in your academic career. I have specialized training in diagnosing ADHD in adulthood.
