Your Guide for Lasting Change Through Clinical Hypnosis
I am a clinical psychologist with over 35 years of experience dedicated to helping individuals achieve lasting personal transformation. My practice integrates creative therapy, clinical hypnosis, and systemic approaches rooted in the work of Dr. Milton Erickson. I specialize in addressing anxiety, relationship challenges, and creative blocks while emphasizing clients' innate strengths rather than pathologizing their struggles. As both practitioner and educator, I have taught psychotherapy at Adler University and contributed to peer-reviewed journals, maintaining active engagement with evolving therapeutic methodologies.

My approach prioritizes personalized treatment plans that engage both conscious and unconscious processes for meaningful change. With professional experience spanning private practice, academic instruction, and conference presentations, I offer evidence-based techniques tailored to each client's unique needs. I maintain office hours Monday through Friday with weekend availability for urgent cases, providing both in-person and virtual sessions via secure platforms.
