I work with adults and older adolescents who are dealing with anxiety and depression that interferes with their ability to maximize their progress at work and school and limits satisfying family and personal relationships. In addition, I find that life transitions can trigger emotional crises, but they also offer the opportunity for people to develop better strategies that can improve old patterns that have been unsuccessful in resolving problems in the past. Other areas of focus have included working on parenting strategies, marital relationships, grief and loss, and the impact of chronic illness on one's emotional life.

Do you want to feel more connected to others? How about to yourself? Are things from your past getting in the way? Therapy allows for the time and space to focus on you. I believe all of us are capable of change, and therapy is one way to begin that change process. I work from an empowerment approach - in other words, I know that you are the expert about who you are, where you're from, and where you're going. My role is to provide feedback, guidance, and a safe environment to process that journey.

I truly enjoy helping people move forward in their lives. My primary orientation is relational where therapist and client co-create the therapeutic process. I like to take the time to get to know you and understand what brings you to therapy. Working within an atmosphere of trust and openness allows true growth to happen. I'm a very creative person and able to work across therapeutic modalities to meet the needs of each client.

Have you been experiencing increased anxiety, depression, fear or loneliness? Are you struggling with emotions and behaviors you would like to change? As humans, we need connections to others for encouragement, especially when we are suffering from the unexpected challenges this world brings.

I view therapy as a collaborative process. It is a place to learn about yourself, how you relate to others, and the ways in which your thoughts, feelings or actions can inhibit your growth or help you meet your goals. My style is compassionate, client-focused, and interactive, informed by psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral schools of thought. I look forward to working with you to help you make real, positive changes in your life.

Welcome! I help teens and adults with eating disorders/disordered eating, mood and anxiety issues, life stressors and transitions. "Over-thinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, feeling out of control, stuck or disconnected" are some ways my clients describe their difficulties. These issues may be eating/body-related and/or may impact other areas such as friendship/relationship patterns, school/work functioning or low self-esteem. A common need is to bring balance and flexibility back into behaviors and thoughts, in turn, freeing up valuable mental space, time and energy that can then be directed towards meaningful life values.

Do you see your teen or young adult child grappling with anxiety on a daily basis? Do you wish you could help them manage their painful emotions, but you keep getting shut out? Perhaps there's been a traumatic event, like a difficult divorce, a challenging medical diagnosis, or even the profound shifts that come with life transitions. Alternatively, it may be the relentless pace of today's world that's taking its toll. Would you like to see your kid thriving and managing the challenges of life in a healthy way?

Do you have difficulty setting boundaries, saying no and being assertive? Do you have a pattern in your relationships where you consistently prioritize others needs over your own? Do you tend to feel taken advantage of, resentful or drained? If so, you may struggle with codependency and find yourself in one sided relationships. You over give and take on excessive responsibilities to help ease the burden of others. You have trouble expressing your emotions and opinions to maintain peace and get your sense of self-worth by people pleasing. Codependency is not a clinical diagnosis, but it can contribute to anxiety and depression.
