Life entails times of joy, happiness, growth, change, pain, and loss. Life can be hard and sometimes we need help to cope through difficult experiences and learn new ways of navigating the challenges we face. I work with clients in a collaborative relationship to create lasting positive change, reduce emotional suffering, access strengths, change negative patterns, increase self-compassion, formulate goals, strengthen coping skills, enhance relationships, navigate transitions, and further movement toward a life that is meaningful and fulfilling.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, PTSD, relationships, identity, grief and loss, substance use and life transitions. My therapeutic approach is psychodynamic using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
It takes courage to ask for help. I view it as a privilege to join with people in their most difficult times. Our starting point will be wherever you are in your own journey. Therapy can be deeply healing, empowering, and transformative. Contact me to discuss your next step. I look forward to hearing from you!
