I view therapy as a joint venture in healing and growth and an interactive process that provides possibilities for change and hope. Everyone's situation and experiences are unique. Together we will explore your presenting issues and concerns to meet your goals. In my work, I utilize cognitive behavioral, solution oriented, trauma focused and humanistic approaches. I also believe that our mind and body are closely integrated, and greater awareness and understanding of the mind-body connection and related practices like mindfulness, can help a person more effectively cope with stress, trauma, depression, etc.

OCD is a heavy burden. And it feels even heavier when nothing seems to help, including therapy. Maybe you feel that OCD is just something you have to tolerate for the rest of your life. I don’t believe that “coping” is your only option. I believe OCD is treatable. And I believe you can make deep-seated and long-lasting change. Together, we’ll look beyond your diagnosis and subtype, and understand the beliefs that maintain the OCD in your life. This can be daunting, but I’ll be there with you every step of the way offering guidance and support.

Psychological assessment can provide valuable information for individuals seeking to gain information about their social/emotional, behavioral, intellectual, and academic/work functioning. Individuals may seek out psychological assessments for self-exploration, to gain a better understanding of their abilities and patterns of interacting with the world, and to help understand personality traits. Testing can also be used help determine a diagnosis, guide treatment, and offer recommendations to improve overall psychological functioning.

Many of my clients are experiencing sadness, anxiety on rotating subjects, lack of energy, disappearing motivation and inspiration, lack of meaning, emptiness, unsettling thoughts, unexplainable blah or boredom. Maybe the client is someone who is going through a life transition (marriage, moving, romantic break-up, death of a loved one, changing schools or graduating), an unresolvable conflict, or is unable to flee from the grip of the past.

As a psychotherapist with expertise working with and understanding children and adolescents as well as adults, I understand that psychotherapy can be useful for people of all ages. My approach to therapy involves giving people the room to express themselves at the most authentic level possible. By respecting that every person is entirely unique, I approach therapy with an attitude of curiosity that I seek to evoke in those with whom I am working. It is an interest in - as opposed to a fear of - ourselves that leads to greater aliveness and ownership over one's thoughts, feelings, actions and reactions.

We could all use a little help sometimes working through life's road blocks and getting to the bottom of what got us here in the first place. Since each client's needs are unique, I prefer using an eclectic approach that is grounded in cognitive behavior and psychodynamic therapies aimed at building confidence and strengthen coping skills. I work toward helping clients identify their own troublesome patterns that interfere with living more authentically.

My approach to treatment is positive, strength-based and collaborative.

As your therapist I aim to guide you on your journey towards self-growth and self-improvement. Through collaboration, psychoeducation, and application of interventions catered to your current needs, I hope to alleviate any pain, stress, or discomfort you may be feeling on a daily basis. Through effective problem-solving and coping strategies, one can also begin to work through any internal or external conflict they are experiencing that may be impacting any personal or interpersonal relationships. At the same time, I am a huge believer in holistic wellness and that it is important to look at the whole person not just a single part.

As our lives change, we may find it harder to tackle the challenges life throws our way. On the outside, you may have it all together, but internally, you feel stuck - stuck in a cycle of worry, racing thoughts, and a critical inner voice saying you're not good enough. It can feel like you can't control the worry - fearing failure, doubting yourself, struggling to be present with your loved ones, and suffering from unwanted impacts on your relationships, behaviors, and overall self-perception.

Is online therapy a good option?

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
