Accepting Clients. I believe in establishing a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust and respect and in a collaborative approach with clients. I work with adults with issues related to anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, college stress, coping with tinnitus, misophonia, phobias, work-related stress and Type A behaviors. In my work, I incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, solution-focused, and emotion-focused approaches.
I have worked in outpatient psychotherapy, university student health, family medicine and primary care, a spinal cord injury unit, and in Veterans Affairs hospitals. I have experience working with tinnitus, misophonia, skin-picking, and professionals in chief executive positions.
I believe in a non-judging and accepting attitudeI have lived in several US States and abroad in Greece and England. In addition, with a background in marketing, an MBA in leadership and transformational change, and experience in leadership development, I am uniquely positioned to understand the challenges and pressures faced by business professionals.
