I work with teens, young adults, adults, and families struggling with overwhelming emotions, difficulty tolerating stress, relationship challenges, and anxiety. Many of my clients deal with self-harm, panic, substance use, trauma, or intense emotional reactivity. I help them gain skills to regulate emotions, reduce conflict, tolerate distress, and move toward goals that matter—whether that’s stability, stronger relationships, a life that feels more manageable, or the first step of figuring out what those goals are.

Happy to see you in person and online, whatever works best for you.
Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results. Many of our pitfalls, our "relapses" in behavior, are related to maladaptive patterns with family or intimate partners. Our work in therapy is to understand these patterns and learn how to change them. If depression is dwelling in the past, and anxiety is living in the future, our therapeutic goal is to live in the present, towards a more authentic and mindful reality.

I am a clinical psychotherapist offering both in-person and telemedicine appointments.
Our first session will give you the opportunity to tell me why you came to therapy and what you hope to get out of it. I believe that for most clients there is great relief in saying the problem out loud in a supportive, objective, non-judgmental environment. Together, we will devise a way forward that makes sense and is realistic.

Are you your best ally or your worst critic? Often we don't see how our own limiting thoughts and fears are holding us back. We become stuck in self-doubt as we judge ourselves and others. Our ability to cope becomes hindered as we struggle and resist what is around us. Therapy can provide a supportive environment to explore, identify and initiate positive change to help you move forward.
