I have been engaged in the practice of psychotherapy for over 25 years. I enjoy working with older children/preteens, teenagers, and adults, and the challenges each of these unique age groups present. As a parent myself, I can appreciate and empathize with the stress that can go along with this family role, as well as its joys. In my sessions I strive to ensure that those individuals I'm working with feel respected, valued, and truly heard, regardless of age. And I invite feedback during our work to assure this is occurring.

I specialize in life transitions and can help you find your path and manage feelings of inadequacy, isolation, emotional distress, motherhood, going back to office, trauma, loss of identity, and/or obsessive thinking.
Happiness is something that appears to be all around us but when it comes to ourselves it can often seem unachievable. Social media provides us with a glimpse of things we are ALLOWED to see. Because of this we compare, we judge and in turn we set ourselves up with unrealistic expectations. Whether it be in work, in parenthood, in our marriage or in our social environment we critique and find things we COULD or SHOULD be doing better. My goal is to help you explore the anxiety of racing thoughts and feelings associated with your past, present and future and provide insight into how these things are impacting your daily life.

You're incredibly insightful and self-aware. You’ve read countless self-help books about healing. You know your attachment style and can identify the attachment styles of those around you. You know how to label your thoughts as irrational but then don’t know what to do with the actual feelings you’re experiencing. You’re aware of the same patterns that keep coming up for you over and over again, yet you feel powerless to actually change them. You've tried so many different things, yet you’re still feeling anxious, depressed, and confused.

If you’ve spent years caring for, or pleasing everyone else, it can be hard to know what you need or how to make space for it. I work with adults struggling with perfectionism, people-pleasing, burnout, relationship patterns, and high-functioning anxiety. Common signs are self-harm, indecision, conflict avoidance and repressed emotions. Therapy with me offers a grounded, relational space to better understand yourself, set healthier boundaries, and feel less overwhelmed. You do not need the perfect words or a clear plan to begin. Wanting relief, more clarity, or a way back to yourself is enough.

Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists
How long does OCD treatment take?
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often treated on a weekly or twice-weekly schedule, depending on symptom severity and the client’s preferences. Some clients may start to see a noticeable improvement in symptoms in as little as six weeks, but it’s also possible, especially in more severe cases, for treatment to take several months to a year before significant progress is made.
What happens if OCD is not treated?
Some people with OCD, especially those with mild symptoms, may find that they are able to adapt reasonably well to life with the condition, even if their symptoms never resolve completely. However, many people, particularly those whose symptoms are severe at the outset, find that their obsessions and compulsions grow more intrusive with time, making it harder to maintain relationships, hold down a job, or navigate the world successfully.
Are there medications for OCD?
Medication can be used to treat OCD. The class of drugs most often prescribed are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, which include fluvoxamine (under the brand name Luvox), fluoxetine (Prozac), and sertraline (Zoloft), among others. In cases of treatment-resistant OCD, other classes of medication, such as tricyclic antidepressants or atypical antipsychotics, may be prescribed. Medication is frequently used in conjunction with therapy.
Can OCD come back after treatment?
Yes. Major life transitions, periods of stress, or other factors can cause symptoms to return or, if they were never fully eradicated, to ramp back up in intensity. For some, these relapses are brief and do not require additional treatment; identifying specific triggers and practicing the skills learned in therapy can help speed their course. For others, returning to therapy for a brief period can help address the underlying stress and strengthen coping mechanisms.
