The decision to begin therapy is rarely easy, but once you begin you may be surprised by the changes that unfold. Finding a therapist who helps you feel safe, supported, and challenged is central to this process. I've been fortunate to work with a wide range of people, including those dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, self-esteem issues, sexual issues, sexual and gender identity exploration, health concerns, artistic blockages, addiction, parenting, and fertility issues.

As a cognitive-behavioral practitioner, I utilize a goal oriented, symptom-focused approach while understanding the importance of a warm, trusting relationship with one's therapist. I specialize in the treatment of adults with various anxiety, depressive, and personality disorders including OCD, social anxiety, panic, generalized anxiety disorder, perfectionism, phobias, depression, and interpersonal difficulties. My patients often tell me that I have allowed them to feel comfortable due to my warm and compassionate demeanor while still challenging and motivating them therapeutically. I believe that developing this trust with a therapist is imperative for successful treatment.

It's normal to feel overwhelmed when trying to manage the expectations we set for ourselves and that others set for us. Given the busy nature of our lives, there is little time to process what these expectations mean to us and why they can cause us distress. Therapy can give space for life to slow down, to limit distractions, and to keep the judgments of others out. By engaging in the therapeutic process, we gain an understanding of our values and how they inform our behavior and emotional well-being.

I offer an individualized approach that integrates mindfulness-based practices and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I work with clients to help support them in navigating life and relationship transitions, healing emotional pain and managing daily stressors. An integral aspect of this work includes the discovery and exploration of unconscious patterns and bringing them into the conscious mind in order to promote a deeper self-understanding and more deliberate relationships with self and others. My areas of focus are depression, anxiety and life transitions.

In my practice I strive to create a supportive environment where you can explore and understand your thoughts, feelings, and interpersonal patterns more deeply. This self-awareness can lead to profound resiliency and greater freedom in navigating life's challenges.

I have experience working with individuals across the lifespan, with a wide range of presentations, including depression, anxiety, trauma-related disorders, and relationship issues.

In a society that values toxic positivity, rugged individualism, internal solutions to external problems, and work ethic over work/life balance - it can be really hard to not feel ashamed, guilty, or even dismissed for not being a “productive member of society” or for not feeling heard or validated in your pain that maybe doesn’t have a solution or an outlet to plug into.
