The most valuable and essential piece in therapy is the connection between the therapist and the client. Without rapport and safety, no meaningful step can be taken towards recovery. In my practice, through loving kindness and empathy, I make it my priority to build a meaningful connection with clients.

“I have had the great honor to work with survivors of trauma and people who suffer from OCD and anxiety disorders for over a decade. What I’ve learned from my work is that facing our fears is the hardest and best thing that any of us can do to live the kind of lives that we want to live. I’m a cognitive behavioral therapist and use treatments that are supported by research. It is my great joy to work with children, adolescents and adults who see so much improvement from using these treatments.”

All of us create patterns of behavior in our formative years to help us survive real and perceived dangers. What are those patterns? How have those patterns inhibited our lives today? My approach to therapy is interpersonal. I draw upon aspects of family systems theory, attachment theory, existential theory, and psychodynamic theory, among others. I believe real change occurs through the collaborative, moment-to-moment interactions between therapist and client in a safe and compassionate space.
