Anxiety and depression can cause you to feel stuck. And the harder you work to get unstuck, the smaller your world gets and the worse you feel. As a licensed clinical psychologist with over a fifteen years of experience, I have an extensive history helping clients with anxiety, trauma, obsessive compulsive disorder and depression to get unstuck. I've received thorough training and consultation in a number of proven, effective therapies. I’m also passionate about empowering my clients to navigate life transitions with equanimity and grace so they can live a life of meaning and purpose.
I believe that the therapeutic relationship is of the utmost importance. My therapeutic approach centers around change-oriented therapies that have been proven to work. My therapeutic style is genuine and transparent. I will help equip you with the skills to understand and manage your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in a new and flexible way.
I aim to empower you to choose actions that align with your values so you can feel confident to make bold moves in the service of what really matters to you. I currently offer evening and weekend appointments. Please reach out for a free consultation to determine if we would be a good fit.

I specialize in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, along with other behavioral treatments such as Exposure and Response Prevention and Prolonged Exposure therapy. During our first sessions, we'll talk in depth about how things would be different for you on a day to day basis if you were living a values-centered life. From there, I will support you in making bold moves in that direction.
