I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing psychotherapy for adults struggling with emotional distress, relationship and family issues, identity and self-esteem concerns, and life transitions (e.g., illness, separation, loss). Many people seek therapy because they feel stuck or confused, and their usual methods of coping are overwhelmed. I provide a collaborative and safe environment in which you can feel heard and supported while developing new ways of understanding and working through difficulties. My areas of specialty include anxiety and worry, LGBTQIA issues, substance use, perfectionism, identity concerns, and trauma.
I provide flexible and tailored therapy that integrates specific skills with active exploration, helping my clients enhance their inner resiliency, creativity, and confidence in order to meet their goals. My approach is grounded in cognitive-behavioral, insight-oriented, mindfulness-based, and multicultural orientations.
Taking the initial steps to engage with a therapist can be daunting. I believe that compatibility, trust, and empathy are foundational to any successful treatment. I provide initial phone consultations free of cost to determine if we are a good fit.
