I work with clients to help them live their valued life using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness skills. Change is constant and is part of life.

I also work with clients struggling with Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMAD) like postpartum depression and anxiety. In addition, I am also trained as a Cognitive Behavior Therapist for Insomnia (CBT-I).

For parents and students alike, adolescence can be a turbulent time. Watching our children struggle can be stressful. It takes a lot of patience, understanding and adjusting to meet the needs of kids in this age group. It's not uncommon for parents to feel that they are engaging in one power struggle after the next...or perhaps feeling a sense of guilt, frustration or helplessness, as they start to question the effectiveness of their parenting and/or the overall emotional well-being of their son or daughter.

One of my ideal clients would be identified as a Highly Sensitive Person by Elaine Aron, PhD. It can be difficult to know how best to guard your energy while still being available for the people and activities you love.

Someone else's needs might center around increased ability to maintain emotional stability, even when disagreeing with a loved one.

Trauma, especially childhood trauma can affect every aspect of your life. Borderline personality disorder is often misunderstood and I want my clients to know that they are not a diagnosis. Issues of trauma, BPD, racial issues, and communicating within your family system can be stressful, and cause a variety of life altering symptoms. Anxiety, stress, depression, harsh internal thoughts, and loss of hope are some of the reasons my clients come to therapy. During therapy, I want you to feel understood, and safe to open up and process these deep concerns.

My style of counseling creates a warm, supportive, and collaborative environment where you can enhance your self-understanding, maximize your strengths, and learn to achieve greater satisfaction in your personal and professional life.
