When faced with life’s unavoidable stressors, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. The struggles of day to day life can often leave individuals feeling frustrated, hopeless, and powerless to work towards change. I enjoy helping clients feel understood and overcome fears that have been preventing them from living life to its fullest. Sometimes simply knowing that the worst case scenario won’t destroy us makes a daunting goal seem more attainable.

You might feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in cycles of overthinking, or exhausted from managing relationships and boundaries. Maybe you're navigating life with ADHD or OCD and want to better understand yourself and how your brain works. You’re looking for a safe space to feel heard, learn new tools, and gain clarity. You want to stop second-guessing yourself, find relief from constant stress, and finally feel confident in your ability to manage life’s ups and downs. You want change—and you're ready to begin.

In today’s world, it is understandable that stress and anxiety levels are higher than ever before. I specialize in treating adults with stress, anxiety, perfectionism, sadness, self-doubt, and relationship issues, and I particularly enjoy working with college students, young working professionals, and parents who feel overwhelmed, isolated, and burnt out. I work collaboratively with clients to accomplish their goals as they adjust to life and role transitions, explore aspects of their personal identity, and build confidence in their ability to cope with stressors and uncomfortable emotions as they arise.

Life can be challenging, and how one copes with this directly affects the quality of their life. Living in the past might promote depression since it is unchangeable. Living in the future can lead to anxiety while you anticipate what is yet to come. In our sessions, we collaborate on coping with your past, dealing with your future, and finding the courage to live in the present moment, where living a quality life begins. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of clinical experience.

Maybe separation will be easier…but you love your partner. That’s your person! For some reason, you seem to argue constantly. If you say left, they say right. You feel like they shut down for important matters. Intimacy is gone. Communication is nonexistent. You think back to the early days with longing, nostalgia, and tears. You think to yourself, “is it me?” Something has to give.

Is there a disconnect between you and your partner(s) when it comes to your sex life? If so, please do not wait to get support! Because we were taught so little about sex, many of us shy away from the topic, but that just worsens things. Sex can start to feel like a chore and lack of sex can become the elephant in the room. It can even cause the end of your relationship if left unaddressed long enough. Before I became a sex therapist, I also found myself in this situation in my long-term relationship. But after 10,000 hours of coaching and counseling clients and becoming an AASECT certified sex therapist, I am confident I can help!

I strive to make therapy a collaborative process, focusing on creating a safe space and normalizing experiences that often go undiscussed. I'm in the passenger seat with you, not steering the car. My interest in psychology began in college, and it just clicked for me. I've always been fascinated by the mind and motivated to help people. I love helping people with anxiety and seeing them make positive changes. Working with OCD aligned well with my focus on anxiety and felt like a natural progression in my career. At NOCD, my team and I specialize in providing evidence-based treatment for OCD.

The desire to know and to be known is a normal human experience. I value the trauma-informed safety and client-centered connection we collaboratively create through a systematic lens. I am particularly sensitive to diversity in culture and self-identity, including with respect to race, gender and sexuality. I believe the importance of affirming the unique individual experience with cultural humility. Through compassion, sensitivity, and empowerment, we will work together respectfully to acknowledge vulnerability, unearth patterns, attend complexity, and gain ownership change to achieve the most authentic and expansive self.

I specialize in the really hard stuff life throws our way. I work with adults, college students, and teens affected by grief and loss, complex trauma (abuse and neglect) and PTSD, serious and chronic health conditions (like cancer, ALS, MS, MD), disability, and other big life changes and challenges resulting in depression and anxiety. I believe that our inability to control what happens to us is not something to be overcome. Instead, it is the reality of life that we all live within. This is where the real work of being a person begins. And this is where good, meaningful, compassionate therapy comes in. I'm glad you're here.

Does life ever feel like a maze, with a dead end around every corner? Does it ever feel like the more you try to untangle the threads of your mind, the tighter the knots become? I compare my role as therapist to be a guide, someone who listens carefully and guides you through your unique maze, pointing out potential pitfalls and celebrating scenic views. I offer a calm space to allow you to open up, process your experiences, and take steps forward. For years I’ve worked with people who wrestled with grief over various losses such as death, divorce, chronic illness, unemployment and estranged relationships.

As a Licensed Psychologist, I have come to appreciate the human capacity to change unhealthy behavior patterns, work through incredibly difficult life circumstances, and create more meaningful and fulfilling lives. I appreciate that beginning therapy can elicit feelings of uncertainty and anxiety, and I recognize the strength that it takes to begin this process. I aim to acknowledge and foster these strengths during our work together, whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, or adjustment to major life changes.
