I identify as queer/ lesbian/LGBTQ+.
My ideal therapy client wants to put in the work to explore themselves and be willing to take me along that journey with them. I'm here to listen, validate and challenge when needed. While my speciality is DBT, I also enjoy psychodynamic and person-centered approaches. I provide individual supervision for LCSW candidates as well. My ideal LSW supervisee is willing to be open and honest with themselves and with me as a newer social worker. I'm excited to support you in your adventure towards being an independent mental health professional and help you equip yourself with the tools needed for introspection, sound ethics and success.

Anxiety is a pain. Struggling with self-doubt and constant worry can be overwhelming. My clients feel like they’re never quite 'good enough.' They compare themselves to others and constantly criticize themselves. These habits feel helpful in the moment, but leave them feeling stressed, tired, and overwhelmed. They might even feel like they can't shake their past mistakes or traumas. So much so, that they don't get the opportunity to fully enjoy the lives they've built for themselves or their relationships. My clients want to slow down and rest but are afraid that if they do, they'll fail.

Starting therapy means entering a unique relationship that is centered on your care, and which offers profound growth. I see it as a source of understanding and empowerment - it allows us to better know ourselves and also to be ourselves in the world more fully and freely. I work with a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, existential concerns, complex trauma, negative body image, low self-esteem, life transitions, and challenges that arise in academia. Many of my clients are queer and transgender and I am proud to hold those identities, as well.

I have been helping individuals reach their personal goals through counseling for over 25 years. I base my work on the belief that every human being has the ability to face challenges and emerge from them with greater strength, to create and sustain meaningful relationships, and to craft a unique life, one that is meaningful, satisfying, and consistent with personal values. I provide support for individuals to recognize and fully experience their own painful issues, then help them build the strength and strategies necessary to confront those issues directly and create solutions to effect lasting change.

Change can be really, really hard. We can get so stuck in routines and behaviors that prove to be ineffective for us, yet it can be hard to recognize on our own. Therapy is useful in that it allows us to look inward while considering what change is necessary to have a more purposeful, satisfying life.

I empower women and individuals to navigate through the crossroads and transitions in life in order to help them live their best lives. Because research has shown that transitions in life trigger physical and emotional stress responses in the body, and having coping skills to effectively manage the stress of life's crossroads can provide the emotional stamina needed to thrive, I offer relationship counseling, individual counseling for anxiety, depression, grief and loss associated with life transitions, and relationship issues.

Are you feeling like the happiness, peace of mind, and professional success which you desire is consistently out of your grasp? My typical client knows that something in their life is not working, and they are ready to seek out meaningful change. Making the first step to reach out and pursue support is often the most difficult step. The good news is that psychotherapy and professional coaching are powerful tools for creating lasting change; for those ready to make the leap.

Sometimes we experience life's hardships, and do not know how to face them. Instead, we avoid talking or thinking about them. Traumas may occur in our childhood, in our relationships, or during significant losses. Unfortunately, the effects of past experiences are felt in current relationships, on the job, or in the body. In order to move forward in our lives, I believe that gradually telling the story of painful life events with a professional is healing. Once you have gradually told me about your pain, we can then work together to develop ways of coping and moving forward.
