I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, bipolar, ADHD, and others. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter."

Types of Therapy

  • Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
  • Motivational Interviewing
"
I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide on the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll examine how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to resist those thoughts and change your feelings for the better.
