I specialize in treating teens and adults with anxiety, depression,
Bipolar Disorder
, and developmental disabilities.
It's so important to have someone to talk to when going through difficult times - unfortunately we don't always have that opportunity. As a therapist, I strive to have my clients feel like they can be seen, heard and feel safe in a comfortable and confidential setting. I use strength-based, person-centered techniques to help my clients work towards self-awareness and personal growth. I also value learning from my clients each session and help my clients to develop self-compassion. I believe that it is important to have as much empathy for oneself as you would for a close friend or family member.

Are you ready to finally find out who you are? To break down the wall and connect to the world around you? To live without those painful memories that dug their claws into your mind? Trauma can affect everything: your humanity, your identity, your ability to cope. My clients often experience daily anxiety, frequent depression, nightmares, poor memory, emotional ups and downs, and a sense of not knowing who they really are. Worst of all, they feel like they don’t know how to relate to other people - even their closest loved ones.

One of my favorite quotes from a movie is "if something gets in your way, turn." On the mountain top ready to ski down a "K12," and the best advice a friend gives is "turn." Changing your life's trajectory takes work, but when done effectively and efficiently you will see the path behind you in a different light and the path before you on new ground.

Have you noticed you have been struggling to wake and feel confident about what’s ahead? Perhaps you feel no one else really understands? I want to help you on your path to discovering your values and how to achieve them. Life is not meant to be lived on the sidelines, you have everything inside of you to be the author of your life, and I can help you write the story the way YOU want it to be. I don’t think therapy must be a painful experience, or a last resort. Therapy can be something that can offer solutions for what you thought you, maybe, were the only one dealing with.

I want to help you feel better. Do you feel like you’ve encountered countless obstacles in your life, or like your mental health itself is an obstacle to feeling fulfilled? Are you self-aware and resilient, yet cannot seem to reach a place of stability? I work with individuals who are hoping to heal from deep distress, and connect to a life worth living. Your distress might have you not recognizing yourself, or trying to cope in whatever way you can. You might have endless thought loops about things that have happened, or about the uncertainty of what's to come. Your distress also might be perpetuated by the state of the world.

Bipolar Disorder Therapists
What is the most successful approach to treating bipolar disorder?
Living with bipolar disorder can be challenging, and a number of therapies have been found effective in providing support to patients as they gain the skills to understand and manage the disorder. Family-focused therapy is often helpful for children and teens (the majority of cases develop before age 19); it aims to minimize mood cycling by improving family communication and reducing conflict. It also helps young people navigate the developmental challenges the disorder can create. Cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) and variants such as dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) help patients manage the thoughts and feelings that influence bipolar mood swings as well as develop specific behavioral strategies to counteract them.
What happens in therapy for bipolar disorder?
Because the patterns of mood switching and its triggers differ for each person and can change over time, mood tracking or monitoring becomes a basic way patients learn about the nature of their condition. One of the most common features of therapy is finding a workable method of mood monitoring, in which patients track their daily activities and rate their moods, then use the findings to adjust routines accordingly. Patients learn ways of handling the many stresses that arise in life so that they do not trigger mood swings.
What kinds of problems does therapy help with?
Like many other mental health disorders, BPD is heavily influenced by stress; therapy provides skills for coping with stressors of all kinds. Therapy is extremely important for helping individuals identify the situations that may trigger mood switching, so that mood swings can be prevented. Therapy may especially target recognition of the early stages of mood change so that they can be managed. In addition, therapy helps patients deal with the significant amount of turbulence the disorder can create in relationships and in work life.
What is the goal of therapy for bipolar disorder?
Therapy helps patients set up their lives to maintain stability so that their mood isn’t constantly threatened by daily events. Perhaps the first task of therapy is to educate people about the nature of the disorder. At the same time, a primary goal of therapy is to enhance adherence to drug treatment. Extended periods of mood stability can prompt patients to discontinue medication, triggering relapse, while the early phases of manic episodes can feel so energizing that patients stop medication, ushering in full-blown mania and the altered self-perception that can lead to destructive behaviors. Another major goal of therapy is to understand one’s mood patterns so as to minimize both the frequency and intensity of mood cycling.
