I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, or trauma. During our initial sessions, we will dive deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Therapies in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT and CPT we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to challenge those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
