My ideal client is open minded and willing to do what is normally outside of their comfort zone. My ideal client is an individual who is dedicated to improving and committed to living a better life. Someone who is able to accept change and accept aspects that are out of their control. I have much experience working with trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, identity, addiction and many mental health issues. I thoroughly enjoy helping people overcome problematic areas and enabling individuals to live a full and meaningful life. I feel strongly about the empowerment of the client and healing the mind, body and spirit. I have extensive training in trauma: Cognitive Process Therapy [CPT], Prolonged Exposure [PE], Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing [EMDR], Suicide Risk Assessments, Sub-Acute, Residential & In-Patient treatment. I have extensive training & experience with Addiction treatment: In-patient, Residential, IOP, Out-patient, Intervention, Program Development, college faculty, college level therapy. I maintain a safe space for individuals to explore interpersonal conflicts that cause emotional pain. Change starts with the individual's understanding of what is not currently working. Understanding trauma & how differently each person defines it is an important aspect for change. I believe everyone already has their own answers. We should all embrace change!
People who are living with depression, anxiety, trauma, and chronic health conditions face a unique and often overwhelming loop of emotional and physical challenges. Sometimes people feel defeated, burnt out, and stuck in patterns that hinder personal growth. Breaking free from these patterns requires a comprehensive approach, addressing that feedback loop between emotional wellness and physical health conditions. Learning skills to make safe and healthy changes empowers people decenter the diagnosis and live more fulfilling and meaningful lives.

Together, we will partner in helping you have a life worth living by understanding how the pain of the past is interrupting the present and jeopardizing the future. During therapy (individual, couples, family, etc.), life coaching, and emotional support animal assessments, I utilize a combination of CBT, psychodynamic interpersonal, self-psychological, strengths-based, and ecological perspectives, I aim to help the client identify their greatest goals when addressing their traumas, fears, and psychological challenges.

I am a seasoned clinical psychologist who is passionate about helping others be happier and live a better life . I work with individuals and couples at my practice in downtown Evansville. I have been in private practice for over 5 years after earning my PsyD from Yeshiva University in New York City. I incorporate a variety of techniques depending on my client's individual needs. These include DBT skills, mindfulness based interventions, and trauma informed treatment. I am committed to working with culturally diverse people from every walk of life and strive to create an open and affirmative space for all. I particularly enjoy working with young adults, adults, and youths. We each come to therapy searching for things to change, understanding, and symptoms relief. During our initial session, you can expect me to take time to get to know you, and provide feedback that you can apply to yourself and others in everyday interactions. We will look at your thoughts, feelings, and reactions that arise in therapy in order to work directly in the present moment. Whether you're looking extra support during a challenging situation, or you simply want to change direction in your life, I look forward to us establishing a collaborative relationship, It is important to understand that you will get more results from therapy if you actively participate in the process. The ultimate purpose of therapy is to help you bring what you learn in session back into your life. Therefore, beyond the work you do in therapy sessions, your therapist may suggest some things you can do outside of therapy to support your process - such as reading a pertinent book, journaling on specific topics, noting particular behaviors or taking action on your goals. People seeking psychotherapy are ready to make positive changes in their lives, are open to new perspectives and take responsibility for their lives. Do you take insurance, and how does that work? To determine if you have mental health coverage through your insurance carrier, the first thing you should do is call them. Check your coverage carefully and make sure you understand their answers. Some helpful questions you can ask them: *What are my mental health benefits? *What is the coverage amount per therapy session? *How many therapy sessions does my plan cover? *How much does my insurance pay for an out-of-network provider? *Is approval required from my primary care physician? In-Network Insurance Plans: Anthem, Optum, United Health Care, Atnea, New Direction, etc. Please check with your insurance carrier to know if I am a provider. Often a single case agreement can be made with your insurance and I can apply to become a provider for your insurance.

An individual's need to live a happy and balanced life throughout the lifespan is always the goal. When something happens that is difficult to understand or resolve, a good therapist can assist you in navigating your way through the experience. I have approximately twenty years of experience doing just this. It is important to find the perfect fit for this journey and hopefully I can be that for you.
When your struggles get to be too much, life can begin to feel heavier and more isolated--robbing you of peace. Without the right support, it's easy to feel stuck, life no one truly understands, and that nothing will ever change. The longer you walk alone, the harder it becomes to move forward. You don't have to walk this road alone. Connect with us for support!
