Do you ever struggle with feelings of inadequacy? Find yourself getting stuck in regrets about the past or worries about the future? Does worry and stress interfere with your ability to feel satisfied with your relationship with yourself and others? I believe that a warm, collaborative and empowering therapeutic relationship can provide the foundation needed to create new ways of relating to your thoughts, develop more effective coping strategies and cultivate self-understanding.
I am a Licensed Psychologist with over 15 years of experience working with young adults and adults. I have training and experience in working with a range of concerns including anxiety, adjustment issues, depression, relationship concerns, ADHD, Autism, trauma, body image concerns and identity.
I help clients navigate interpersonal difficulties, build resilience, develop coping skills and cultivate self-understanding and self-compassion. Utilizing evidence-based techniques including ACT, CBT, IFS and mindfulness, I offer research-informed strategies to manage stress, enhance relationships and foster personal growth
