Life’s Most Transformative Moments Begin with Understanding
Life’s most transformative moments often emerge during periods of transition. As a clinical psychologist in Burlington, Vermont, my work focuses on helping adults, families, and professionals navigate uncertainty with clarity and purpose. At the center of this approach is a simple idea: self-understanding creates lasting change.
Therapy integrates psychological assessment, insight-oriented dialogue, and a structured exploration of emotional and relational patterns. Each treatment plan is tailored to the individual, offering a thoughtful balance of clinical precision and genuine connection. For those seeking support with organization, planning, and follow-through, targeted strategies are available to strengthen focus and daily functioning.
My practice brings together clinical psychology, leadership development, and mental-health advocacy. Clients come seeking emotional steadiness, professional direction, or a new path forward—often all at once. The work offers clear structure, compassionate support, and practical guidance to help individuals move through challenges with resilience and a deeper sense of self.

Therapy Settings and Sessions
Individual and couples therapy are offered in person in Burlington, Vermont, and through secure telehealth where permitted. Sessions provide a private, structured environment for exploring emotional experiences, relationship patterns, and personal challenges.
Treatment is tailored to individual needs, with an emphasis on continuity, meaningful engagement, and a consistent therapeutic relationship.
Assessment-Informed Treatment
Clinical assessment and ongoing dialogue help identify important psychological patterns, clarify treatment goals, and guide therapeutic decisions.
When appropriate, assessment findings are integrated with personal history, emotional experiences, relationships, and daily functioning to develop a more individualized approach to care. Progress and treatment goals are reviewed as the work develops.
Coordination and Continuity of Care
When additional services are appropriate, treatment may involve coordination with other healthcare professionals, including prescribing providers, with appropriate authorization.
If outpatient psychotherapy is no longer the appropriate level of care, referrals and transition planning help clients identify more suitable support.
Payment and Insurance
Services are provided on a private-pay basis. Documentation may be available for clients seeking reimbursement through out-of-network benefits or using eligible HSA or FSA funds.
Fees, payment expectations, and relevant documentation are discussed before beginning services.
The goal is thoughtful, individualized psychological care that supports understanding, stability, and meaningful change.
