I believe that every person deserves a therapist they feel understood and supported by. I provide a compassionate, respectful and non-judgmental approach and collaborate with clients to recognize and strengthen their inner resources and values toward developing positive solutions - whether struggling with a long-time chronic issue or with an adjustment to a difficult life event or crisis. I offer both brief and longer-term therapy, as appropriate, and work with clients through video, phone and in-person sessions.I believe that committing to work through life's challenges in therapy can often result in unimaginable joy and meaning.
I'm committed to working together to develop strategies and skills toward your achieving a fuller and more satisfying life. I treat depression, anxiety and trauma in adults and older teens. I use science-based therapeutic methods that are tailored to each individual to achieve the most positive outcome. I am fully trained in EMDR.
To determine if I am a good fit for you, I offer a free 20 minute introductory phone session. When contacting me, via phone or email, please include the type of insurance you have and your approximate day/time availability for sessions......A favorite quote: "In the depth of winter, I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer," -Albert Camus
