With a warm, down-to-earth, and supportive style, I help clients work through challenges such as depression, anxiety, OCD, relationship difficulties, life transitions, grief, academic and career concerns, and creative blocks. Whether we are working to help you more fully understand yourself; reflecting on patterns that may be getting in your way; processing painful feelings or memories; identifying sources of meaning, purpose, and strength in your life; or empowering you to take action in a new way, my goal is for you to feel understood and accepted, and that our time together will make a meaningful difference in your life.
As an integrative therapist, my approach is customized to what works best for you. Principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), humanistic therapy, existential therapy, and psychodynamic therapy will frequently inform the work we do together. I provide ERP therapy for OCD.
Our pain and areas of vulnerability are connected to what we care about deeply. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space for you to be your authentic self while we explore what matters most to you and the kind of change you want to see in your life. I look forward to connecting with you. (For a faster response, please email.)
