I specialize in treating C-PTSD and eating disorders, but also work with clients seeking healing from depression, anxiety, and general mental health concerns. Whether your trauma is a "Big T" or "Little T" trauma, I believe all our nervous systems need healing and restoration after experiences that leave us confused, unsafe, or disconnected. Whatever you are going through, you'll find a nonjudgmental, supportive space in our work.

Hi there! Is your child or adolescent exhibiting symptoms of anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, body image challenges, or interpersonal challenges?

Part of the work of therapy is to strengthen our belief that a future can exist for us, beyond the one we're able to grasp in the present moment. The fact that you're browsing through these profiles tells me that you may be considering taking the chance to see how things could feel different in your own life, better even! That reflects a powerful sense of inner-caring. Therapy can be used to clarify and untangle complex thoughts, feelings, behaviors, sensory cues, fears, and desires. This increased self-awareness can provide the foundation for taking steps in new and enlivening directions.

I offer a safe, non-judgmental, and culturally-sensitive space for your free expression and exploration. Together we find that anything can be thought about, talked about, and felt. In our relationship, free from ordinary demands and expectations, you can enjoy occupying space and feeling deeply seen and heard. From here, we can begin to grasp the shape of who you are at your core and carefully breathe life into the softest pockets of your inner world that have been formerly unreachable.

Do you need a place to be yourself? To be seen and fully accepted for who you are and encouraged to take leaps and risks to craft who you want to be? The fear of failure and judgments, our own and others, often holds us back from exploring the edge of our possibilities. I am passionate about creating a nurturing relationship where you can begin to practice and embody the changes you want to create in your own life. I work with individuals, couples, children, adolescents and families. I specialize in women who are reinventing themselves and family members of individuals with mental illness.

My approach as a therapist is empathic and kind. I believe good rapport between therapist and member is a wonderful contributing factor to positive outcomes in treatment. At NOCD, my team and I provide personalized and effective specialized treatment for OCD and related conditions, such as BFRBs (including skin-picking, nail-biting, and hair-pulling). Our understanding of the nuances of these conditions enables us to diagnose and treat them properly. We have received training in evidence-based treatments, including Exposure Response and Prevention (ERP) therapy—the gold standard treatment for OCD.

"How we do anything is how we do everything." We move through life in a distinct way that was shaped before we can remember, reinforces itself everyday, and inevitably leads to the same problems despite our best efforts to change. Do anxiety and depression color your everyday experience? Has addiction taken hold of your life? Do you struggle to build satisfying relationships? Through courageous self-exploration, I can help you find compassion for yourself and come to understand why you encounter the same issues again and again. Building this understanding and taking responsibility for your life can empower you to heal and grow.

I specialize in working with clients who want to resolve emotional or relational life changes. I do this is by sharing therapeutic practices that serve to overcome emotional distress which, in turn, leads to unhealthy behaviors that interfere with current life goals and values. As we work together in a safe, non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, negative thoughts and behaviors can be changed and replaced allowing clients to free themselves from discouragement, harmful attachments, fearful thoughts, excessive worry, or feeling like they are losing control of their emotions and their lives.

Are you facing change? Maybe considering making changes but, feel too overwhelmed? Life changes, even those typically seen as "good", have the potential to evoke anxiety, fear, or depression. As we grow up we internalize messages from those around us and our experiences. Discovering and challenging those messages can help one learn to manage and tolerate their emotions. Together we can explore what messages are getting in your way. We can discover what is right for you and how you want to rewrite them.

Seeking help amidst the sea of therapists out there is overwhelming to say the least, and one's mental health is so personal, it is hard to know who can help. Psychotherapy is a collaboration in pursuit of your growth and development. I hope to provide a safe and private space where you feel comfortable to talk about the matters of the heart that plague you. I believe you deserve nothing less than a respectful and ethical relationship where you can delve into the darker spaces inside that house some of your deepest pains and heartbreak.
