My Work
Psychological Services
Nearly 1 in 5 adults live with a mental health disorder. Almost 50 percent of teens also face mental health difficulties (National Institute of Mental Healht; NIMH). It has been a lifelong mission of mine to offer comprehensive services to help indiviudals cope with their mental health challenges so that they can focus their attention and efforts on building a meaningful and purposeful life. To that end, I specialize in psychological treatment for children, adolescents and adults. I also complete select psychological evaluations to assist in immigration challenges. I offer a free, confidential telephone consultation prior to initiating any psychological service.
Please note, no insurances are accepted at this time. However, do not let financial constraints become an obstable to therapy. I am willing to work with clients and their financial challenges to make the therapuetic process a reality for them.
