I believe that everyone deserves a time and a place to work on their mental health, heal from painful experiences, and move towards finding more meaning in their lives and relationships. I also know that given the current pandemic, we're all struggling more than usual! I offer a warm and judgment-free zone to work on a range of issues. I believe psychotherapy works best when it is tailored to each person as a unique individual. I utilize an integrative model, drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), relational, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and humanistic approaches.
I specialize in working with people who have anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and transgender folks. My training in mindfulness based approaches has lent me to working with athletes on their performance as well. I also have specific training in clinical sexology which includes LGBTQ, couples therapy and general sex therapy.
Therapy can be a scary thing to consider if you haven't been before. I work towards making every client feel as comfortable as possible in order to get the help they deserve. Please do not hesitate to reach out! I also offer a free phone consultation.
