If you or a loved one is experiencing anxiety, unhappiness, relationship difficulties or are feeling stuck in your personal or professional life, therapy can help. Through our work together, you will gain insight into maladaptive patterns and actively work to address them to reduce symptoms and improve your quality of life. Many life experiences can be accompanied by emotional distress that can feel overwhelming, so my style is to work collaboratively with you by fostering an open and safe space that will empower you or your child to observe, explore, and adapt to find balance in life.

If you or your child suffer from OCD or other anxiety disorders, you're not alone. Anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness, yet most sufferers don't receive proper, evidence-based treatment. OCD/anxiety can cause problems socially, academically, professionally, and create chaos with family members. The good news is that there is help. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) has repeatedly shown to be the most effective approach for defeating OCD and anxiety. CBT creates new neuro-pathways by changing the way you think and behave. It's basically exercise for the brain. The more you flex those brain muscles, the stronger you become.

I hold an assumption that the contexts of people's lives are integral in understanding both the problems that they are up against, as well as the knowledge they have in spite of those challenges. I think about people as more than the obstacles that constrain their lives. Rather than focusing on getting to the bottom or the root of an issue, I am interested in asking questions that can help you think differently about it. I believe people carry with them talents and skills that live just alongside their problems, and make up unique resiliencies that have gone unnoticed and unaccounted for.

Happiness, peace and joy are our natural state. When we are feeling depressed, anxious, frustrated or stagnant, that’s a signal that something is pinching us off from our natural state. What is that thing or things? Psychotherapy is one way to find out what those things are. Through therapeutic conversation, we will try on different ideas and try out new actions to discover ways to allow that happiness, peace and joy to flow into your life. And, as we feel increased satisfaction about our life, we are open to increased satisfaction in our relationships, work and future.

In today's world we are surrounded by constructive and destructive forces. It is easy to get sucked in by the destructive forces such as fear or negativity which can lead to uneasiness, isolation, and disappointments. I believe therapy can be a helpful space to shift your focus to more constructive forces within yourself, your family, and your community. Therapy can help you to channel the pain into creation of a peaceful act, whether that's developing greater self-compassion, or untangling any relationship issues.
