In my therapy work, it's important that I first learn who you are, and what strengths and values you possess. We then work together to identify how patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior may be holding you back from being the best version of yourself. I use evidence-based interventions (strategies proven successful through research) within a cognitive behavioral model. My style as a therapist is warm, nonjudgmental, and active. Whether you are hoping to improve your mood, develop more meaningful relationships, or learn skills to manage emotions, I'm here to support you through the ups and downs.
From my experiences working at Georgetown University, Rutgers University, and the University of Delaware, I have specific expertise supporting college students and young working professionals.
I am happy to talk more about my practice and answer whatever questions you might have about starting therapy. Please send me an email to get more information, or to schedule a consultation.
