Compassion. Insight. Empowerment. I'm committed to blending clinical expertise with warmth and respect for each client's wisdom, to create a healing, growthful partnership. A hallmark of my approach is cultivating mindfulness: nonjudgmental, moment by moment awareness that promotes living more fully, less reactively, and making better use of one's resources. Whether addressing depression, anxiety, stress, past trauma or current relationships, I begin by creating a space of acceptance. Here, we cultivate insight: the ability to observe accurately, think clearly, and choose wisely. Together, we explore options, drawn from clinical scholarship, collective wisdom, and clients' evolving self-awareness.
My areas of specialization include body image/eating issues, depression, anxiety, life transitions, and women's health issues, such as sexual victimization, recovery from breast cancer, and assertiveness. My integrative style, grounded in the best modern scholarship, blends cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic and mindfulness approaches in promoting health and personal growth.
