I work with those struggling with anxiety, mood disorders, self esteem, OCD, and disordered eating. If you have tried to handle it alone and are ready to seek help, I provide a safe, warm environment for you to explore the roots of these challenges, rebuild your self-esteem, and improve relationships. Together, we’ll tailor evidence-based approaches to your unique needs, strengthen your ability to handle life’s stressors, and help you finally embrace who you are with confidence and hope. Challenges don’t need to be faced alone. With the right support, you can cultivate resilience, nurture growth, and empower yourself to thrive.
I provide a range of therapies, including CBT, DBT, ERP, mindfulness, relaxation, and movement-based approaches. Along with disordered eating, my expertise covers anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD and parent training skills. Together we will work on ways to regulate emotions, build effective coping skills, grow confidence and lasting resilience.
Taking the step toward change is never easy, but it can be the beginning of something transformative. Therapy offers a space to uncover your strengths, work through challenges, and build the life you envision. If you’re ready to move forward I would love to support you on your journey.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy, gather some history and general information, and think about goals for therapy. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to manage negative thoughts and emotions in more effective ways.
