Do you or your child have difficulty managing emotions, maintaining healthy meaningful relationships, or coping in a stressful and chaotic world? I am passionate about helping you learn to manage impulsive behaviors, depression and anxiety. When you learn where to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors you are likely to see an improvement in mood and self-esteem, greater joy in your relationships, and an easier ability to adapt to life’s stressors. I specialize in treating anxiety and depression in adolescents and adults, and I treat clients with major life transitions, such as job changes and relationship beginnings and endings.

It's hard. I know it is. Feeling so anxious that you cannot function at school, work or with friends. Feeling depressed that it's just numbing. Feeling like you are fighting with everyone and no one gets you! Maybe you feel like you are eating too much or too little. Is meeting a therapist a good idea or can you figure things out on your own? Scrolling through therapist profiles isn't helping either. I have something to share with you.

“Mental health is not a destination, but a process. It's about how you drive, not where you're going" (Shpancer, Ph.D.). Each of us is on a personal journey striving to be our best selves. Sometimes, these journeys can leave us feeling unequipped to navigate their rough terrain. For most, this is the human experience. While we can't escape the realities and emotions of this experience, we can certainly learn more effective ways to cope. We can find ways to be gentler, more loving, and kinder to ourselves so that we may share this with our loved ones and our community.

How have you been feeling lately? We all have moments of feeling down, angry, hopeless, confused, anxious, and depressed. How are you coping with these feelings? What if I told you that there are ways that you can disrupt and replace these feelings/thoughts with healthier and safer behaviors? Do you need someone to talk to that will actively listen? Let us explore and identify the triggers that impact your daily life. Breathe! It is time for you to identify and explore ways to cope with your stress and life's undesirable circumstances. It is time for you to achieve your goals and to live a healthier lifestyle. If not now, then when?
