There are so many emotions and challenges a person can experience, and while sometimes one feels alone, I'm here to tell you that does not have to be the case.

I meet my clients where they are through an acceptance, holistic, client-centered, and nonjudgmental perspective. I integrate multiple approaches including psychodynamic, acceptance-based, and values in order to guide my clients towards healing and growth. I tailor evidence-based and effective treatments to the needs of my clients. My style is collaborative, open, and curious. I want to foster comfort for my clients. Together we can create space that feels safe for you. My goal is to find a pathway in understanding ourselves in the service of finding and achieving our true values and happiness.

I am experienced in helping clients recapture the person they previously were. Many clients say to me, "I just want to go back to being the person I used to be", and that's exactly what we focus on. Clients also often say to me, "I just don't know what to do or what I want", and we work together until we figure out how to alleviate their confusion. We achieve this in various ways, most often through exploration of the presenting issues, examination of past relationships and significant experiences as well as decision-making and behavioral patterns.

I work with preteens, adolescents, college students, new parents, and couples who are struggling with anxiety and stress, academic and work issues, emotional conflicts, relationship conflicts and adjustment to major life transitions.

I do believe each person and family has unique resources to activate healing processes. Brief Therapy requires a highly collaborative approach between therapist and clients, and focuses on practical solutions and clear communication. Brief Therapy offers a maximum of 10 sessions but usually don't need that many to promote change in the problem that is presented. I work with individuals, couples and families with a variety of problems: marital conflict and affairs, depression and anxiety, children and adolescent problems, addiction, eating disorders, stress and work related problems. I also provide online-therapy services.
