Do your emotions feel overwhelming or hard to manage - especially in stressful situations or relationships? You may find that you are more sensitive, reactive, or deeply affected by things others seem to brush off. I help teens, young adults, and parents navigate emotions and life challenges. Whether you struggle with problematic relationships, difficulty doing the things you want or need to do, suicidal ideation, trauma, unwanted thoughts, self-harming, lashing out at loved ones, or are feeling stuck with other unhelpful patterns, my goal is to help you feel understood and create a life that feels more in control and meaningful.
I am a Harvard- and Emory-trained licensed clinical psychologist with advanced training in dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). I offer online individual therapy, parent guidance, and family therapy, and can practice throughout most states.
I strive to offer a collaborative, nonjudgmental, emotionally safe therapy space that is affirming of all backgrounds, genders, and sexual identities. Please reach out with any questions or if you would like to talk about whether therapy with me feels right for you.
