At this time I am accepting preteens through adults virtually. I partner with my clients to navigate stressful life changes, ADHD, anxiety, OCD, grief, trauma and more. I can start teaching you how to feel better in your first session. Parents - I will work with you and your child as a team to equip them with the tools they need to thrive at school, home and socially.
I provide telehealth therapy for children age 6 + through young adults. I have specialized training in anxiety, trauma and grief. I use mostly Cognitive Behavior Therapy which effectively treats multiple conditions in the here and now, while also integrating strategies from other evidence-based therapies such as DBT and ACT.
I know it's a vulnerable, humble feeling to reach out to a stranger to help with painful or sensitive challenges. I understand I need to earn your trust. I go at your pace and I am happy to provide a phone consultation to help you decide if this is for you.

I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) which is evidence based and meant to last about 3 months or so. I also do Exposure and Response Prevention to target Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and anxiety disorders. I look for a reduction in the severity, frequency and duration of symptoms as a sign of progress. I want you or your child to get your/his/her life back.

The first session is all about gathering information and I will give you my initial impression and suggested treatment plan by the end of the appointment. We will prioritize the most troublesome symptoms and target those first with a combination of learning and practicing skills. I also give tasks for you to do between sessions so you can use the tools on your own and work me out of a job:)
