I work with adults who want to address depression, anxiety, addiction, social isolation/loneliness, and trauma recovery. I also work often with family members of those struggling with addiction. I am a published writer and NYMHCA-presenter on the epidemic of social isolation and loneliness. I utilize evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and behavioral strategies to help my clients learn new skills and make values-aligned choices in their lives.
I treat therapy as a collaborative effort between myself and my clients, directing our attention towards symptom reduction and improving overall health. I help my clients learn how to sustain long-term recovery and address unhelpful thought patterns. My style is actively engaging to challenge your current patterns and reinforce stable, healthy living.
Feel free to reach out! I am always happy to discuss scheduling preferences, treatment goals, etc. so we can get started on the right foot.
