Like everyone, I have had my share of difficulties in life.  Some of those problems I caused, others just seemed to come my way.  As a result, working with people who are struggling as I have struggled is deeply meaningful to me.

     I have been a psychologist in Whitehall for more than 20 years. I received my Ph.D. from the University of Southern Mississippi in 1984.  I spent the early part of my career in public mental health, at first, working in emergency mental health services in Norristown, PA. Later I became the vice-president of Salisbury House of Northeast PA that primarily served people with chronic mental illness. I opened the practice here in Whitehall and have worked with all age groups. At present my practice is focused on adults.
