You are in a time of transition - In your 20s and 30s you are navigating relationships, relocating, rethinking work or purpose, or finding your way through college and graduate school. You may be feeling worried, stuck, lonely, overwhelmed, or unsure. My approach is collaborative and curious. Together, we’ll make sense of what you’re experiencing and create space to move forward. I support- - - depression/low mood - anxiety/worry - grief - loneliness/isolation - family and relationship stress - career questions - graduate school and college experience
I enjoy working with clients who are at transition points in their lives. I have a special interest in clients in their 20s and 30s, and I do work with some older clients in transition times as well. I keep a "Boutique Practice" so I can keep your care highly personalized and keep scheduling easy.
Right when you start therapy with me, we begin to unfold your story together. You gain new approaches and insights in the very first appointment. I see therapy as a collaborative process, and together we create a space that feels like yours. We start with a collaborative introductory meeting. Reach out to schedule.

I am a collaborative therapist. In our first session, we discover what brings you to therapy and begin to find what works best for you. I use an Emotion-Focus framework as well as drawing from ACT, DBT, UP, and RO-DBT. Depending on your needs and what is a fit, we might incorporate somatic work or mindfulness.
