We all experience stress in our lives, but sometimes that stress is overwhelming and we have trouble coping. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can be an incredibly effective tool to help manage anxiety, depression, and other stress-related difficulties. CBT focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in everyday life. As a cognitive-behavioral therapist, my approach is collaborative, individualized, and based on scientific evidence.

As a trauma-informed therapist, I utilize evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, Psychodynamics, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
We all feel stuck at times as we navigate life’s challenges. Therapy provides the opportunity to gain insight and skills needed to make the changes you want in your life. My goal is to provide a welcoming, nonjudgmental, and compassionate space to guide you in exploring and adjusting patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating that interfere with living more fully and freely. My holistic approach integrates techniques for mind, body, and spirit that build upon your unique strengths, to progress towards the positive changes you envision.

My specialties are in Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity disorders, depression and anxiety disorders, including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Because no two patients are alike, therapy should be tailored to each patient, rather than trying to treat everyone with the same theoretical approach. I believe that a therapist’s job is to guide the patient as they learn to change the behaviors and thinking styles that may have once been helpful, but are now getting in their way. Most importantly, I believe it is a therapist's job to teach their patients the skills necessary to eventually function independent of their therapist, allowing them to eventually leave therapy instead of being stuck with having weekly sessions for the rest of their lives!
