I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in a combination of individual & family therapy for the treatment of children & teens who have depressive, anxiety, stressor-related, conduct, or substance use disorders, as well as other social/behavioral difficulties & grief/loss/separation/divorce. I utilize an integrative theoretical approach informed by developmental, family systems, biopsychosocial, & cognitive-behavioral frameworks, including "3rd wave" acceptance & mindfulness-based approaches. I further emphasize thorough clinical assessment & accurate diagnosis to inform appropriate & evidence-based treatment.

I am dedicated to helping you gain insight and develop tools to cultivate personal growth and relief from symptoms. You don’t have to face your struggles alone. I work holistically, meaning I consider the mind, body, and spirit. We will work together in a safe, compassionate, curious, and healing environment to understand yourself better and begin to feel connected, whole, and healthy. You can feel free to share your life and whatever you are facing. This type of work creates deep and lasting change.

I provide therapy for individuals, couples, families, adults and children. I have worked with many different clients providing the support needed for change. My experience at various social service agencies, at a child and family clinic; and in a college clinic has given me the opportunity to work with many adults, children, adolescents and families. I find my training in marriage and family therapy is particularly helpful for my clients in that it helps individuals better understand their relationships with themselves and others in their life. I regularly look at the systemic process in relationships, and at attachment issues.

I truly enjoy working with adolescents and emerging young adults as they transition to adulthood. I also enjoy fostering teen-parent relationships. My specialties include: Teens/Adolescents, Emerging Adults, Anxiety/Depression, Mood Disorders, Teen-Parent Relationships, Executive Functioning, School Issues, LBGTQiA plus, Self-Esteem and Body Positivity.

Life can be challenging and full of ups and downs. I work with teens, adults, couples, and families to help them identify and explore difficult feelings, thoughts and maladaptive behaviors in a safe, supportive and nonjudgmental space. As a therapist and clinical social worker, I take a holistic approach in building understanding in the problem-solving process by providing empathic listening, validation, and insightful questions using curiosity, compassion, and connection.

Are your relationships strained or disappointing? Is it difficult to manage your thoughts, feelings, or behaviors? Do you feel stuck, worry, feel sad, or have thoughts that you’re not good enough? Whatever you are struggling with, you do not need to suffer alone. We can work together to change things that are not working for you. I provide a supportive, accepting, judgment-free space where you can heal and grow. Therapy makes change possible and facilitates deeply meaningful growth so that you may experience greater joy, have more fulfilling relationships, be more productive, and feel more satisfied.

I believe that everyone deserves the chance to flourish in life. Life throws us curveballs, often causing us to lose sight of who we are and what we need to feel worthy and successful. My main priority with clients is to create a safe space, free from judgment and criticism. I utilize a multitude of counseling theories in my work, but always practice from a client-centered foundation, in which I work to empower my clients to take an active role in their treatment. I believe there is value in collaboration, and I want to work together to navigate through the challenges that come up.

As a psychologist, counselor, and evaluator, I look at sessions as a collaborative process. Together we work towards making the changes my clients desire so that they experience more contentment, peace, satisfaction and success. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, an evidence-based approach that helps people learn skills that last a lifetime. I am a licensed psychologist with over twenty years experience as a counselor, therapist, and diagnostician, and am active in training therapists.

The desire for healing is a natural part of the human experience that is felt at all stages of life. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for you to share your story with your unique goals and needs in mind. Through an integrative yet family systems-oriented approach to treatment, I am passionate about serving as a fellow traveler on your journey towards growth. My therapeutic background consists of assisting children, adults, couples, and families both in person and virtually. I offer teletherapy services to adolescents, teens, adults, families, and couples while being located in a confidential and quiet environment.

I work with most ages (12-late 50's), but specialize in adolescents and families searching to improve their relationship with their emotions as well as the most important people in their lives. I utilize a family-orientated approach informed by my experience that no one can truly be understood without the context of their upbringing and important relationships. We'll reflect on the themes from your childhood and how it affects you in the present day. Working through these critical experiences while building skills to manage the feelings in the here and now are key to feeling better and improving your relationship with yourself.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker & Founder of a full-service concierge outpatient behavioral health practice with over 15 years of experience working in residential, outpatient and community-based settings treating adolescents and adults. I specialize in treating complex individuals and families employing a comprehensive, multi-systematic treatment approach utilizing evidence-based practices: motivational interviewing, CBT, DBT, EMDR and experiential therapy. Services include: Interventions, coaching, crisis management, comprehensive evaluation, individual & family counseling, treatment consultation and case management.

My approach involves bringing change about from the inside out. We will work towards understanding how the problems that brought you here developed, what they mean, and the purpose that they serve. This approach goes beyond simply treating symptoms and strives to help you make changes that are deeply-rooted and long-lasting. It has been proven that the therapeutic relationship actually creates healthier connections in your brain. In younger children this deeper type of therapeutic change is often accomplished through therapeutic play. Play is the natural language of children and allows them to express their thoughts and feelings.
