I provide individual and family therapy to individuals who are looking for help to cope with life's various twists and turns. I utilize an organic approach to gain an understanding of your specific life situations and stressors that are contributing to your current feelings. I use positive affirmations, strength identification and skill building to encourage you to reach your personal goals. We will work quickly to alleviate uncomfortable symptoms while we learn to identify triggers that may cause these feelings in order to focus on making long term changes that will help you to move forward through life.

I have supported adults, teens, and children in their struggles with anxiety, eating disorders, the psychological aspects of cancer, depression, social problems, attention deficit disorder, and learning disabilities. I also want to help people who care for their loved ones during times of illness.

Sometimes we get caught up in who we think we should be or how we think we should act. This makes it hard to tune in to which parts of ourselves we want to nourish. I invite clients both young and old to take an active role in learning ways to increase meaning and enjoyment in their lives. I work with adolescents, adults, and parents struggling with issues of depression and anxiety, sexuality, and gender identity. Through drawing, storytelling and play, I help kids put their feelings into words and learn effective ways to connect with others. I recognize and celebrate neurodiversity as well as expansive gender expression.

If you're a woman ready to get to work on making changes in your life, I'm your girl. Sometimes it's really hard for us to ask for help-especially when you're strong & independent . Therapy is a great way to reach out, learn more about yourself, and grow through any challenges you might be facing. I help women through the transition of pregnancy & early parenting, and dealing with any postpartum changes. I also help women who want to change their relationship with food and their bodies. Clients also see me for managing anxiety & depression as well! In addition to in person services, I also offer online therapy in MA, CA, and AZ.

Perhaps everyone around you thinks you have it all together. Maybe you're doing it all and managing a smile in the process. But, on the inside, is it chaos? Perhaps you landed here because you're not just managing to do lists, but fighting that voice in your head that tells you you're doing it all wrong, and that you're not good enough. You're working on boundaries, trying to communicate effectively and desperately trying to connect with those around you while trying to be the best at everything - Are you juggling ALL. THE. TIME? Exhausted, have nothing left to give, and no time for you? Well, not anymore. I'm glad you found me.

In therapy, the client and I enter into a collaboration to find new ways to problem-solve, reduce suffering, discover patterns and build new life paths. As part of this process, I help the client: to learn about patterns of thought and behavior, to learn to be with unpleasant experiences instead of avoiding them or grasping for something else, and to practice awareness, self-compassion and curiosity, habits of mind that help bring about positive change. I have a gentle, direct, and engaging approach that encourages and supports the client.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults with issues of anxiety, specific phobias, depression, trauma, mood dysregulation, adjustment to life transitions and building coping strategies and resilience. I believe that with challenge comes an opportunity for inner growth and strength. Mindset is a powerful tool that can help you to feel strong, calm, and confident.

Most of us do the best we can with the resources we have. Sometimes we think no one understands our worries & fears. If open to it, we want to work with a therapist when our usual ways of relating aren't helping & we feel stuck, anxious, angry or depressed. Therapy often helps provide insight into our strengths & internal resources we already have to help navigate challenging times. In sessions, I focus on working with clients to unlock this strength to steer their lives in the direction they want. I bring curiosity, warmth, respect, & empathy to my sessions.

My newly release book entitled: Why Can't I Be Happy: From Self-Hate to Self-Love. You don't have to be "crazy" to seek counseling. In fact, counseling, seeking new ways of looking at a problem, getting professional help, being coachable, re-framing some of the things that have been falsely thought to us, are all signs of having a healthy mind in search of the doing better. I understand that sometimes life becomes unmanageable or overwhelming; you just need help to sort it out. At times the same issues keep happening over and over and you wonder "Why me?" I will show you how to break that cycle and avoid the reoccurring patterns.

I treat all my clients with the same respect. I provide them with a safe environment to seek therapy or coaching, discuss their personal situations and share their goals. I am interactive and often build upon my client's strengths as we work together to achieve their goals. Every treatment experience is unique and decided upon by individual, couple, or family (along with myself) so they get what "they need". As a Therapist and Certified Life Coach, I provide my clients with a positive experience. Treatment should conclude with them feeling better about themselves and having met "THEIR GOALS".

Do you want to find a therapist who is attentive, respectful, empathic and effective? Are you struggling with feelings of deep sadness or anxiety? Do you find certain issues in your life overwhelming? I will provide a safe and non-judgmental environment for you to talk comfortably about your problems, challenges, hopes and goals. I enjoy developing warm and trusting relationships with my clients, and believe that you deserve to be happier.

*NOW OFFERING TELEHEALTH - I’M SORRY BUT MY CASELOAD IS FULL AT THIS TIME * A guiding principle in my work is the belief that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is of the utmost importance. Neuroscientific literature supports the curative powers of deep empathic attunement (limbic resonance) and the brain/body's ability to heal.. As such, in addition to attending to you with the same level of respectful presence that I would expect in a therapist, I use both cognitive/emotional and body/mind tools to assist you in your healing. I think you will find me warm, genuine, empathic,and knowledgeable.
