I help people cope with difficult thoughts and feelings so that they can pursue what matters most to them. I primarily practice acceptance and commitment therapy, a treatment which helps people become in tune with their feelings, connect more deeply with people around them, and find the strength to live according to their values. I also specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia and cognitive processing therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and cognitive processing therapy are all evidence-based therapies, meaning that they have been shown to improve symptoms of mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, insomnia, and PTSD in research studies.
Starting therapy can feel daunting. It’s important to find someone you trust and feel comfortable with. I’d be happy to talk over the phone before starting therapy to answer any questions you might have.
