Does your use of SOCIAL MEDIA feel like an ADDICTION? Do your moods vacillate wildly depending on your Twitter mentions or how many times somebody has swiped right on your profile? We fear the judgment of others, but we crave their approval and praise. These feelings can be overwhelming and make you feel like you are out of control. What if I told you that you didn’t need to suffer like this?

Collaborating with you in a safe, relaxed and compassionate space and understanding what you need is key to the therapeutic relationship. Every individual is unique and their issues are not the same. Focusing on the person and not the problem, I offer a strength based perspective where I strive to create a space where clients can openly share, disagree, explore, learn strategies and challenge themselves to live their best life each day. I have deep respect for the courage it takes to make the initial contact and engage in therapy and I will advocate for you and support you through.

Clients come to my practice looking to better their lives. They often come with a presenting problem that has brought them in at this specific point in time and they are seeking resolution and relief from that situation. However, in addition to more short-term, symptom relief, many clients come to us hoping to attain a better understanding of themselves from the inside out — from their thoughts to their behaviors. In short, they are trying to increase their awareness and understanding of themselves in an attempt to improve the quality of their relationships and the their lives.
