Hi, and thanks for visiting my profile! I use a cognitive behavioral therapy called acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which includes mindfulness techniques and defining your values. Research shows that ACT is effective for a wide range of client issues. I treat anxiety (including OCD and panic disorder), depression, adjustment issues, difficulty with life transitions, marital issues, career/academic stress, and relationship problems. I also really enjoy assisting with parenting issues, women's issues, and postpartum adjustment. I have a background in child clinical psychology so feel well equipped to help with parenting.

I’m sure you’ve been asked this a thousand times… “I’m so impressed—how do you do it?” On the one hand, that question is SO satisfying as your inner perfectionist steps up to claim her gold medal. But on the other, you’re silently screaming that the pressure of trying to do it all is crushing you. Your perfectionism shows up in your work. You probably find yourself working way more hours than your colleagues. It might show up in your relationships. Have you ever gone into a tailspin because you wanted to plan the perfect party for a loved one? Or it might show up within yourself—how you eat, dress, exercise, or maintain your home.

Feeling emotionally exhausted? Tried talking to friends and family and still feel unable to be understood? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health?

I have helped clients, who have been willing to establish a trusting relationship, over time and explore current problems or growth potential through examination of key past and present relationships. If you can examine feelings, take responsibility for your part of conflicts and look for ways to expand give and take with others, you will do well in therapy with me. My recent work with brain behavior therapies can help you resolve difficult and long standing sources of anxiety and depression.
