Please call for most recent availability. Therapy should serve you in the way a swiss army knife can; sometimes you need a file for taming sharp edges, a bit of flint to shed some light, or a blade to cut through what is holding you back. The therapeutic process is just that, a multi-tool that can be used to eliminate many barriers, rather than a one-size fits all. We will work together at your pace to identify and tackle these barriers confidently, with knowledge that you are well equipped for the task at hand.

I enjoy working with children and teens, exploring the variety of very real day to day frustrations that they encounter at their age and ensuring they have an ear to hear them. I enjoy connecting with individuals with ADHD and ASD, finding means of connection and empathy through traditional talk therapy or creative therapies. As a music therapist and yoga instructor, I strive to find holistic means of connection and focus on the whole body within the therapeutic space, using music and movement in lieu of words when words may be difficult to find.

My clients come in with many different troubles and often, the troubles lead to a great many other problems that they have or have had in their lives. There is no problem too big and there is a way to live better. I believe we are looking for contentment. To feel "okay" and, today's society tries to warp us into believing we are not okay because we need something else than what we have right now. We all have the capacity to choose a better life, better relationships, better care for ourselves. The answer is not outside of us but within. I work with children, teens and adults that think they're not enough. We are all enough.

For the past 20 years, my work has focused on helping children with anxiety and behavioral challenges. Like physicians, practicing what is scientifically proven to work is essential. Children deserve no less! So when working to help children with anxiety, ODD, DMDD, CD, and IED, I use Parent Management Training (PMT), Cognitive Behavioral Training (CBT), and Problem-Solving Skills Training (PSST). For 7-years at Yale University and for the past 10 years through my clinic, I have trained hundreds of professionals and parents from around the world in these treatments via telehealth and in-person sessions.

Have you ever asked yourself, “Why is this happening to me?” or “What is the meaning to all of this suffering?”? These are universal questions that we all may ponder throughout life. In my practice, I use an integrative style drawing from a number of theoretical orientations. I utilize person-centered tenets to provide a safe, comfortable and non-judgmental space for clients to express themselves. I have found that the existential themes of anxiety, choice and meaning provide a framework from which we can view our daily struggles and often utilize metaphors highlighting these undertones to help clarify client’s statements.
