I want you to experience joy in life, work, and play.

I am a board-certified clinical psychologist who likes helping individuals and organizations flourish. I offer personalized mental health support that promotes resilience and well-being. It's exciting for me when my clients see results and achieve long-cherished dreams in ways that are meaningful to them.


I also specialize in organizational psychology, professional and life coaching, and high-impact consultations.

My approach integrates scientifically-supported strategies with practical solutions to improve leadership effectiveness and team dynamics.

Let's collaborate to create meaningful change—both personally and professionally!
