I am passionate about helping children, teens, and adults gain practical skills to manage emotions effectively. I believe that building a strong therapeutic relationship is the first step in helping you achieve your goals. My hope is that you will find my warm and personable nature to be a comfort, and my knowledge of the most effective psychological techniques to be useful. When working with children, and often adolescents, I strive to have that working relationship with parents as well so that everyone feels informed, empowered, and at ease in my office. I am able to help with a variety of concerns related to mood or attention.
For those who need it, I am extensively trained in using Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) to treat symptoms of OCD and anxiety. I can also help using Habit Reversal Training to address conditions like skin-picking, hair pulling, and tics. I am also able to help you overcome body dysmorphia and disordered eating to live your healthiest, happiest life.
I understand getting started with a new clinician can feel challenging. I encourage you to schedule a first session so I can get to know you, and share more about how I will go about helping. I am a LGBTQIA affirming and competent provider. I am dedicated to and passionate about helping all of my clients achieve their goals.
