My style of therapy is one that is both collaborative and supportive. I believe that all individuals have the capacity to make lasting changes in their lives.

My clinical and research experience is largely based on mindfulness as a framework for psychotherapy. I have extensive experience working with anxiety and depression in adults, those suffering from chronic illness or pain, relationship and identity conflict, and those individuals overwhelmed with emotion or distant from their experience. My practice is goal oriented. I work intensely with clients to make changes in their personal lives, changes that they and others close to them can easily observe and acknowledge.

My therapeutic approach hinges on these core beliefs: 1) Thoughts are just thoughts. They aren’t always true, important, or meaningful. 2) Feelings aren’t problems to be fixed. They are all part of the human experience. 3) Taking values-aligned action is the key to living a life that fulfills you. These ideas are inspired by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, an approach that involves accepting what is beyond our control, practicing loving self-compassion, and redirecting our behaviors toward the values that we hold most dearly.
