Welcome to my virtual practice! Are you experiencing panic, anxiety, stress or depression? Perhaps you feel stuck and are not sure why? With your goals driving the session, I can help you become more aware of the thoughts, feelings and behaviors causing your concerns. I utilize a Cognitive Behavioral framework to help explore the cycle of unwanted symptoms that you are seeking to help change. I also help clients explore the biological connection to their emotional health, as our body symptoms provide valuable information that we often ignore.

As we face challenges, transitions, or even in our day to day lives, we may be feeling stuck in moving forward and unsure where to start to help ourselves. It can feel like a big burden and an overwhelming start to begin therapy. I am here to sit with you to provide a safe space to hear your story. As we work together, my goal is to assist you in developing healthy coping skills and solutions that will benefit your life.

Making the decision to change or start something new is never easy, therapy included. Let me help you make the change you want in your life! I have been helping people do just that for nearly 20 years. My clients are adults of all genders & sexual orientations. It's been my experience that therapy works best when you and your therapist share a sense of trust & comfort. This helps increase motivation. Primary issues treated are depression, anxiety, lack of satisfaction in relationships & careers, self-esteem, grief and living with chronic illness.

Finding a therapist can be unnerving, especially given that the search often happens when we are at our most vulnerable. For therapy to be effective, it relies on trust and collaboration, making it crucial to find the right fit, so you can have the therapeutic environment, experience, and results that you deserve. Personally, I specialize in working with anxiety and depression, trauma, bereavement, and identifying and reshaping the persistent and often-tricky narratives that make us feel as though we are less than our best selves.

I work with children at all stages of development from infancy to adolescence.

I practice trauma-informed, compassion-based therapy. In the words of Gabor Maté, trauma is disconnection from the self. Self-compassion is the key to healing.

In the last few years, we have all had to manage our lives in addition to the added stress and anxiety brought upon by the COVID-19 pandemic. From my 10 years of experience working in residential, outpatient therapy clinics, and lastly, nursing homes during COVID-19, it became clear to me that this pandemic was going to lead to an additional crisis. A mental health crisis. So many have felt the need to be strong and carry on and now that we are moving forward, the mental health toll remains. I started this telehealth private practice in order to provide psychotherapy services to all those who need it and to provide easy access.

Past, painful experiences are a regular part of the human experience. When those experiences are unexplored and unresolved, they can feel overwhelmingly heavy. They can also be a part of your present; informing your relationships, unhealthy habits, and influencing the way you cope with difficult situations. This can leave you feeling alone, unfulfilled, and disconnected from your life. Therapy is a place where it is safe to unpack these painful experiences and process them in a non-judgmental, compassionate environment.
