I'm happy to partner with you wherever you are on your journey. Although change is a natural part of our lives, it's still often tough, especially if you struggle with
depression
or anxiety - or both. Whether you're facing transition within your professional life, from college into career, making your way towards graduation, or are experiencing challenges within your relationship, you don't have to do it alone. I am currently not accepting new patients.

Sometimes life can be painful. When
depression
, anxiety, grief and loss or stress from a traumatic event interfere with your ability to function at your best, feelings of hopelessness and helplessness increase and self confidence all but disappears. This is when anger, fear, sadness and despair take a toll not only on you but on the relationships with those you love. I can help you examine these difficult feelings in a safe, non judgmental environment. As new ways of thinking and communicating are learned and practiced, your life and your relationships will be deepened and enriched.

I work to develop a trusting non-judgmental relationship that allows clients the space to uncover insights that lead to growth and resilience. I enjoy walking with my clients as they discover paths to peace and creativity in their lives.

Hey there. I'm a huge believer that by looking at strengths, open to finding blind-spots (we all have them), willing to do uncomfortable work and open in therapy, you can find relief and feel better in the areas that bring you to searching for a therapist. Everyone has a story and everyone has the capability to find resilience and strength to let go of the burdens and amount of discomfort you may be feeling.

Available state wide through video conferencing. Many people struggle with feeling different, strange, or like others do not relate to them well. Many people feel like they have to hide who they are and have no place to be themselves. Many new clients worry about being pushed to confront truths and emotions before they are ready. I seek to first get clients ready to change then support them as they lead the way. This goes for the person with
depression
who needs to reshape their relationships; the person with PTSD facing their painful past; and the gay person grappling with the consequences of coming out or not.

What if you could learn to love yourself despite physical insecurities? What if you could work through trauma, anxiety, and
depression
to find that you actually do like yourself? What if you could find love for yourself despite having experienced a suicide attempt or suicidal thoughts? .
Our society is constantly shifting, how we interact with one another has changed, and the things we considered “true” may be crumbling. Yes, teens and young adults are the future but what if they (you) are scared and are struggling to figure out how you fit in, and question if they even want to. Trauma, anxiety, and
depression
can make this discovery a daunting task. Maybe you or your teen are overwhelmed and don’t know where to start, staying in bed may sound like the best and sometimes the only option. Maybe you don’t even like yourself let alone love yourself.

Depression Therapists
What is the goal of therapy for depression?
Therapy for depression has several major goals. One is to relieve the mental pain of depression, which distorts feeling and thinking so that sufferers cannot see beyond their current state of mind or envision feeling better. Another is to give people the mental tools to recognize and correct the kinds of distorted thinking that turn a problem into a catastrophe and lead to despair. Therapy also teaches people how to process negative emotions in constructive ways, so they have more control over their own emotional reactivity. And it helps people regain the ability to see themselves positively, the motivation to do things, and the capacity for pleasure.
What happens in therapy for depression?
Perhaps most important, no matter the type of therapy, patients form an alliance with the therapist; that connection is therapeutic in itself, plus it becomes an instrument of change. Patients learn to identify and to challenge their own erroneous beliefs and thoughts that amplify the effects of negative experiences. They learn to identify situations in which they are especially vulnerable. And they learn new patterns of thinking and behaving. They may be given “homework” assignments in which they practice their developing skills. In addition, good therapists regularly monitor patients to assess whether and how much the condition is improving.
What therapy types help with depression?
Several types of short-term therapy have been found effective, each targeting one or more areas of dysfunction. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps clients challenge their negative thoughts and beliefs, learn new behavioral strategies, and curb reactivity to distressing situations. Behavioral activation (BA) is a form of therapy often used in conjunction with CBT; it focuses on engagement in rewarding activity as a pathway to changing negative feelings and disturbed mood. Another widely used approach is interpersonal therapy (IPT), which targets the social difficulties that both give rise to and get exacerbated by depression. Therapists may combine approaches as needed.
Can therapy for depression be done online?
Studies have found that online therapy can be highly effective for treating depression, although it may be more challenging to build a good therapist-patient alliance on screen than in person—at least at first. However, online therapy can offer considerable advantages. Accessibility and convenience are tops among them. Some people actually find it easier to talk about problems online than in person. While online therapy typically limits visibility of facial expression and body gestures that give important nonverbal cues to a patient’s state of mind, it can give therapists a glimpse into a patient’s world and life, providing information that can be highly useful in guiding therapy.
How effective is therapy for depression?
Many studies show that therapy is highly effective provided that patients complete the prescribed course of therapy, commonly 16 to 20 sessions. Over the long term, it is more effective than medication and the effects are more enduring. As a result, psychotherapy has the power not just to relieve current suffering but to prevent future episodes of the disorder. Therapy reverses the dysfunction in neural circuitry that disposes individuals to a negative view of themselves, the world, and their future and they acquire coping techniques, problem-solving skills, and understanding of their own vulnerabilities that are useful over the course of a lifetime.
