Feeling stuck or fed up with your current therapist? Let's get real – life can be tough. It’s especially hard on ambitious people, parents & perfectionists who are expected to have it all together. The more successful you are (or are expected to be), the more difficult it is to keep it all together. Add anxiety, depression, & relationship issues – forget it. And the more that you achieve, the harder it becomes to find a therapist of your caliber or solutions that work for your complex issues. But I'm not here to hand out generic advice or quick fixes. I'm here to help you uncover the root of your challenges & build lasting changes.

In my private practice, psychotherapy sessions will usually be on a weekly basis.

Some of my favorite words to live by are, "if nothing changes, nothing changes". You deserve the opportunity to feel your best and I would be honored to help you on your way towards emotional healing and self-discovery. The best part of being a therapist is getting to witness and learn from all of the unique strengths and coping skills that everyone possesses, and helping them identify and access those gifts. I love working with people in all stages of life, and truly believe in the healing power of a strong, therapeutic relationship.

Therapy can empower you to cope with and improve a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, relationships, loss, low self-esteem, past trauma, identity issues, and insecurities.

My style is collaborative and respectful; together we will consider how experiences from the past intersect with the present and focus on what is most meaningful to you now.

Years of experience often matter when people are anxious or otherwise distraught. For 25 years, I have specialized in the cognitive-behavioral (CBT) treatment of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) as well as a range of anxiety and depressive disorders in late adolescents and adults.

As a professional, I want to spend more hours daily applying my expertise assisting you to be your best. I believe that begins with the first session to the last. Couples, are you ready to end dialogues that run in circles with no resolution? Sign up for an intensive with me for immediate results. Friends, are you weighed down with anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges? For this reason, I include mindfulness in therapy sessions involving, stress, worry, and trauma.

Some emotions can be too complex to process alone. Distress can develop from daily life, when navigating relationships, and possibly as a result from unacknowledged childhood experiences that resurface. I help foster awareness of your own needs through reflective exercises, mindfulness, skill acquisition, and combating cognitive distortions. I believe that we all hold the answers within ourselves to what causes us distress, but the challenge may be in discovering them. Counseling is a partnership and my role is to guide individuals towards reaching their mental health goals and strengthening their relationships.

You don't have to be positive all the time. It's perfectly okay to feel sad, angry, annoyed, frustrated, scared and anxious. Having feelings doesn't make you a negative person. It makes you human. Have you heard the saying, “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade”? Well what if you aren’t sure how to make lemonade or even if you will like it? Sometimes we wish to look at the positives of life and respond to things differently but you may not know how to or even why you respond to triggers the way you do. My ideal client is one who is seeking help. That means you. Everyone’s life experience is uniquely different and special.

I am currently accepting new clients for daytime, virtual sessions. I help young adults struggling with trauma, anxiety, OCD, self-doubt, and harsh inner critics to learn how to relate to themselves and to the world differently so that they can live lives of greater authenticity, belonging, and purpose. We can work through trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, shame and guilt, decision making, emotional regulation, feeling lost or purposeless, and building tangible coping skills. I utilize principles of Internal Family Systems (or "parts work"), psychodynamic, somatic, and mindfulness-based therapies, as well as ERP.

As a lawyer-turned-therapist, I know the power of a good question. My clients are anxious professionals who have taken all the “right” steps only to wonder why they aren’t feeling satisfied. They share that I have helped them work through anxiety, insomnia, or stress from high-intensity careers. I enjoy helping people find sustainable work-life balance, in addition to moving through grief and loss. Whether it be the loss of a loved one, a career, or way of life, I can be a strong partner for you. My pragmatic approach is tailored and collaborative, helping you identify and implement strategies to both resolve and prevent problems.
