Welcome! My approach to therapy combines the empathy and support of traditional talk therapy with active, research- backed tools to help you overcome life’s hurdles and transitions. My clients and I have had great success with these methods in transforming relationships, overcoming depression, conquering anxiety, and gaining mastery of personal and professional challenges. My approach is both collaborative and directive; it is structured but not rigid.
I'm especially passionate about relationship work, and I have many clients who come individually and still see incredible change in their relationship with their partner, parent, friend, or family member. Additionally, I have completed all 3 levels of training in Gottman method couples’ therapy, which is very effective when both partners are in the room.
My clients have shared that they enjoy working with me and find me easy to talk to. Most of all, they express appreciation for the guidance and opportunity to make really meaningful change. I can't express what an honor it is to be able to be a guide on this journey. If any of this sounds like what you're looking for, I would be so happy to connect!

I work with many individuals who are struggling in their relationships. We will spend our first sessions (typically 1-3) talking about the challenge(s) you would like to address; I aim to give you the space to explore this as much as you need to, and I stay engaged throughout the conversation. When you are ready, we set a specific agenda for what you would like to change first, then get to work!

I use a framework called TEAM-CBT, which was developed in response to the unfortunate fact that therapy is unhelpful for a significant proportion of people. This framework uses Testing, Empathy, Assessment of Resistance, and Methods (TEAM) to eliminate barriers and employ research-backed methods for effective change.
