My approach to therapy is based on theory and research on child development, personality, relationships, and psychotherapy. It involves looking at yourself, how you live your life, and how “blind spots” in your self-awareness lead to your symptoms and difficulties. Therapy therefore, involves filling in missing pieces of your experiences and self-knowledge—understanding “how we work” mentally and emotionally. Making sense of your problems in this way will help you cope better with them and other difficult situations. Ultimately, it will allow you to live closer to your potential, and with a greater sense of reward from life. In addition to therapy, I also provide psychological evaluations for forensic/custody, fitness-for-duty, and pre-employment purposes. I am also a Clinical Assistant Professor at University of Tennessee and provide clinical consultation/supervision to other therapists. I have been a licensed clinical psychologist since 1999, received my doctorate from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville in 1997 and completed a clinical psychology internship at Harvard Medical School/Massachusetts Mental Health Center in 1997. Memberships: American Psychological Association, Appalachian Psychoanalytic Society, Society of Personality Assessment.
