Facing life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, but the right support can spark meaningful change. Over the past decade, I’ve gained experience in community mental health, IOP/PHP settings, and therapeutic day schools, working with children, adolescents, and adults across a range of concerns. I specialize in anxiety, OCD, and depression. I am CCATP certified and BTTI-trained in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD and anxiety. I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space, helping clients build skills, increase confidence, and move toward the goals that matter most to them.
My therapeutic approach is client centered and collaborative, facilitating exploration of thoughts and emotions and understanding the origins of mental stress. Integrating CBT, ERP, and mindfulness, I offer tools for personal growth and improved functioning, helping clients turn their challenges into pathways for meaningful transformations.
Although therapy can seem intimidating, it offers a route to healing and positive change. If you're ready to take the next step towards improved mental health and functioning, I invite you to connect with me. I would love to join you on this journey!
