You can walk on the beach while you talk with your therapist! I specialize in anxiety and related conditions, including panic attacks, worry, depression, social anxiety, PTSD, and phobias. Feelings of loneliness are often associated with anxiety and depression. As we walk side-by-side on the beach, you may feel that you are, in fact, not alone. Walking in nature can enhance your feelings of joy and connectedness, and together with effective coping skills, can help you develop more resilience toward life’s challenges. Imagine doing all of this work while breathing in fresh air, listening to crashing waves, and walking in the sand!
I offer a unique approach by combining evidence-based therapy with mindfulness and walking on the beach. I specialize in treating stress, anxiety, panic, depression, sleep problems, distress related to climate change, relationship issues, and health concerns. My approach can often result in long-term positive changes after only a short period in therapy.
I work in a non-conventional, healing setting with individuals 16 and older who want to master coping skills to overcome challenges associated with life transitions (i.e., changes in school/job/marital status). I work collaboratively with clients to develop realistic goals and make practical changes for a healthy, fulfilling life.
