As a therapist, I understand that working through emotions as an individual or in a relationship can be difficult. My job is to guide and support my clients and allow them to discover, excavate & process their feelings. Self awarness is an incredible skill that I enjoy helping clients develop as they engage in the most important relationship - the one they have with themselves.

Please note: as of 9/9/23 my Cigna contract will expire. I will no longer be paneled with any insurance- I specialize in helping families strengthen their bonds with one another, alleviating parental stress and improving children’s emotional dysregulation symptoms. Common behaviors I can help with: emotional outbursts, rigidity/inflexibility, non-compliance, aggression, tantrums, whining, fighting with siblings, low frustration tolerance, low self-esteem, anxiety, family conflict, difficulties controlling anger, and more! While I often work with parent-child dynamics, I can also provide individual support for kids and adults alike.

Grieving the loss of a loved one can feel lonely, isolating, catastrophic and disorienting. You may feel as if no one truly understands what it is like to grieve someone you loved so much. Grief can feel even more overwhelming when it is accompanied by trauma. You deserve to feel understood, supported and cared for while you grieve.

They say, "The first step in always the hardest". Although this is true in many circumstances, it is especially true when it comes to seeking therapy. It is not easy to come to terms with the idea of needing support through this phase in your life. It's even harder to face the idea that you will need to open up to a stranger and trust them with sides of yourself that you prefer to keep private. That said, I want to commend you on taking the first step and getting the process of finding the right therapist for you started. You've gotten through one of the harder parts of this journey!
