I believe that the start to any great personal work is creating a strong rapport with your therapist and using that relationship to foster awareness, creativity and resilience. In addition to more traditional and verbal psychotherapy practices, I am also trained as a creative arts therapist specializing in dance/movement therapy. I believe the arts can be utilized to empower individuals to gain new awareness and improve their quality of life. I only include the arts to the extent to which clients are comfortable.

I am currently accepting new clients. Clinical counseling and coaching services are different, and I welcome the opportunity to discuss both services with potential clients. As people navigate their life journey, they may find themselves caught in reactivity to life's stressors, losing touch with the essence of who and what they are. This can lead to abandoning practices and rituals that nourish their body, mind and soul. In session, clients engage in practices which support rediscovering their potential and creating a life of balance and bliss.

Thank you for exploring my page on Psychology Today. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I provide individual, couples and family therapy with an approach that integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy and family systems models. (I do not treat children or adolescents in my practice.) My role as therapist is to help stimulate change by facilitating conversations that explore and lead to new ways of thinking about your life and relationships, and ways to initiate meaningful change.

I recognize there are times we can get focused on regrets of the past. Or we're consumed with the chaos of anticipating the future. We can be overwhelmed by anxiety, sadness, or experiences of loss and grief...sometimes leading to isolation, being "stuck", or unhealthy relationships with substances, behaviors, or people. What drives me as a therapist is when I see a client taking action that makes their mind an ally, rather than a detractor, in their life.

I see clients seeking help with issues of depression, anxiety, and trauma. Life can be hard and nonsensical at times. Working together collaboratively the goal is to make sense of your experience and tap new resources for wellness. I also work couples having relationship difficulties who are looking for tools to communicate with one another more openly while honoring the both partners' experiences.

What is holding you back from living the life you want? OCD? Panic? Social Anxiety? How would you act if fear, shame and distress didn't have such power over you? We can learn to change how we relate and interact with our internal world and decrease the power our thoughts and emotions have on us. I am passionate about helping my clients learn to manage internal and external barriers effectively and regain a sense of wellness and value in their life. Motivation is crucial in treatment, but successful therapy starts with a good relationship between the therapist and the client.

Each individual is unique and requires support tailored to their issues, personality, strengths and history. Bringing my experience and training to bear, I collaborate with my clients in designing the best path out of their distress and toward freedom and strength. Anxiety disorders, PTSD, depression, grieving, trauma and low self-esteem are among my specialties. I am trained in CBT and psychodynamic therapy and am a Certified EMDR therapist.

Congratulations on taking this difficult step. Changing habits is hard. Many have done it successfully and if you are ready, so can you. I partner with people struggling with addiction to assist them in reconnecting with their True Self.

When we make the choice to live a healthier existence, to thrive rather than just survive in the world, we may find that we need support, nurturing, guidance, or just a witness to our life process. I can be that for you. Choosing the right therapist is paramount. I am dedicated to the development of human potential and will assist you in increasing self-awareness, self-healing, emotional/spiritual growth, and behavior change. I believe in the co-creation of the therapeutic process. Together, we will identify and explore areas/issues that may be causing you discomfort/distress. I can help.

Are you, or someone you know, struggling with life's challenges? I can assist and support individuals and families along their path of change. I offer an eclectic approach to therapy that is shaped by the needs of you or your family.

I am out of the office and unavailable until September! Psychotherapy is a collaborative, goal-oriented process of talking and experiencing emotions in a welcoming and affirming space. Thoughtfully chosen to meet your individual needs, I integrate an insight-oriented approach with evidence-based skills and behavior-focused therapies (e.g. CBT or DBT). Our sessions will address your current concerns, symptoms, and personal goals as well as explore vulnerabilities from your past to develop a deeper self-awareness. Mindfulness and/or EMDR may be suggested to clients who might benefit from an emotion-focused, body-based treatment.

I help new moms, aspiring moms and busy women overcome their deepest, darkest struggles by sorting through things that feel overwhelming, increasing insight into personal characteristics, learning how to cope with what's difficult and letting go of afflictions on repeat in their heads. Clients leave with increased self-confidence, a sense of hope and new skills to handle difficulties long term. Mostly, they learn how to enjoy their lives again...Whatever it is you're struggling with, I can help.

Currently accepting NEW clients! I have devoted much of my professional life to working with people pursuing recovery from chronic stress, anxiety, loss, and substances. Having worked in a variety of roles with differing ages and populations, I have a diverse range of experience to draw from. Through time spent supporting people seeking crisis stabilization, I have a specific passion for working with people struggling with anxiety.

I help children and their families to develop a stronger sense of connection and confidence within themselves and with one another. We can work together to help you and/or your child or teen develop greater awareness of your emotions, thoughts and beliefs and develop the skills to communicate and manage them more easily together.
