Using a flexible and warm approach, I provide individual therapy/family for adults and adolescents. I have a clinical and academic expertise in the importance of the therapeutic relationship and often use the relationship as a main focus to make changes. As a solo practitioner, I deliberately maintain a small client caseload to ensure I am fully able to attend to my clients’ needs. My areas of expertise include treatment of depression, anxiety, and interpersonal difficulties.

I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy. I work to tailor my interventions to my clients’ goals and preferences. I have a relational style and supplement my approach with behavioral strategies consistent with evidence-based treatments (e.g., CBT/DBT/ACT) in alignment with your values.

No matter where you are in your journey, I look forward to hearing about your goals, uncertainties, and hopes for healing. Please feel free to reach out for a free 15-minute phone consult to see if this might be a good match for you!
