When it comes to therapy, I engage each person, focusing on their uniqueness and the reason they are seeking therapy. I applaud everyone that has made the decision to be proactive regarding their mental health and to put forth the effort to address circumstances, either past or present, that have caused disruptions and undesired outcomes in their lives. I would like to support you in any way I can to produce positive outcomes in the most ethical, professional, and compassion filled way possible....
Life is hard enough. Don't do it alone. You're exhausted. You're tired of faking it. You just need space. You're feeling stuck. And maybe a little unsure about beginning therapy. At River Oaks Psychology, we get it. We’ve been there. We all have hard things to figure out. We want you to be unapologetic. Yell, scream, cry, swear, vent, share your deepest secrets, whatever – we'll ALWAYS accept you and care about you. We strongly believe there is often no more profound experience than being heard,...
I only am accepting new patients who are helping students, such as faculty, staff, administration, or counselors during this current crisis on campus. I am not accepting students.

I specialize in working with graduate students who are seeking a kind, sensitive, and curious clinician to guide them through the mental health rigors of academia.

Modern humans have existed on earth for about 200,000 years, while the modern office (and many other stressors in our lives) emerged less than 200 years ago. We really are in uncharted waters. With such a minuscule amount of human history lived under these conditions, it is no surprise that so many of us struggle to make our way. Everyone deserves to have someone in their corner. Everyone deserves to aspire, achieve, dream, thrive, and rest. The miracle of the therapeutic relationship is not jus...
