As a trauma-informed, licensed psychotherapist, I help my clients overcome issues that negatively affect their lives and prevent them from reaching their potential in life and their careers. If you are a trauma survivor, suffering from anxiety or self-esteem problems, or other mental health issues, I understand how confusing and overwhelming these problems can be.

I am a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of professional experience working with clients on how to develop and improve coping strategies to better manage the stress arising from our hectic daily lives. From confronting longstanding issues to managing short term challenges, I work with clients of all cultural backgrounds to better understand themselves and the choices they make.

I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and low self-esteem. I have received extensive training in a range of empirically supported and cutting edge treatments including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Relational Psychotherapy. As a result of my broad training, I use a combination of therapeutic techniques to increase both self awareness and insight as well as skill building and coping strategies. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is a key component of treatment and aim to create a collaborative, open, and safe therapy environment.

I practice therapy from a non-pathologizing, strengths-based approach that seeks to contextualize your experience within the interconnected social, familial, and personal systems you're a part of. Although we can't stop the inevitable changes and suffering that life often brings, we can change how we relate to these things and even find meaning in that process. Ultimately, I believe that each person has the capacity to translate their individual growth into systemic growth, and developing skills and awareness toward this process is central to my therapeutic practice.

It can be incredibly painful and lonely to feel trapped by anxiety, sadness and persistent negative feelings about oneself. It is hard to feel stuck inside patterns from the past that helped you survive once but now prevent you from experiencing life more fully in the present. The therapy I provide focuses on creating a safe, supportive and non-judgmental therapeutic space, devoted to helping each individual gain understanding and compassion for themselves. During the therapeutic process you will be able to break old patterns of behavior and make meaningful and lasting changes within your life.

Did getting to this page take you a while to finally do? Let's face it, therapy can be really intimidating, especially if we've had a bad experience or have never been before. I can promise you my style of therapy is the furthest thing from intimidating. I want to hear you out, be with you in what you're processing, and make it less painful with more gains. In my office, we'll laugh, get real, and walk through whatever it is you need. It's my belief that we're not meant to go through life with an "it is what it is" mindset.
