I have been independently licensed clinician for 11 years, working with adults and adolescents in academic, partial hospital, home-based therapy, and private practice settings. I love helping people increase their authenticity, assertiveness, self esteem, self awareness, and relationship satisfaction. I utilize several theories to inform my practice and am flexible, open-minded, and adapt to what my clients need. In my conversational approach I use sense of humor, kindness and supportive challenging to encourage clients to achieve their aims.
I have extensive training in existential, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral and interpersonal theory. I most enjoy working with individuals and couples who are looking to live an authentic existence that feels in line with their unique values. I have expertise in grief and loss, weight-related issues, women's issues and parenting concerns.
Existential, grief and loss, perinatal, parenting, interpersonal, divorce, transitions, academic, family, career, substance use, health.
