I provide Cognitive Behavior Therapy including Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for the treatment of OCD & anxiety. This approach helps you identify triggers (like negative intrusive thoughts or stressful situations) which create discomfort. This anxiety leads to behaviors such as avoidance or compulsions. CBT/ACT helps you break this ruminative cycle. I can also help you learn healthier coping strategies to be more effective interpersonally, more efficient with your time, appropriately regulate mood swings, tolerate painful emotions and decrease self-sabotaging behaviors.

Are you depressed, anxious or fearful? Do you have relationship issues? Do you want to feel better and be happy?

Adolescence can be a difficult for children AND parents! You may find yourself feeling like you are living with a complete stranger or that you aren't able to see eye to eye no matter what you try. Your child may have difficulties with authority figures or experiencing problems at school, mood swings, anxiety, anger, or even sadness. Chances are that you're getting advice on how to "handle" your child from friends and family and still no results. You probably feel overwhelmed and confused, you may even ask yourself where you may have gone wrong.

I help neurodivergent people understand themselves so they can thrive. It is an honor to walk with young people (and their families) as they get clear on their core values and grow to spend more time on what they care about. A lot can get in the way of our goals, like enjoying time with friends/family, reaching our potential at school/work...I often slow things down at first. I've met so many people who are tired of coping skills being jammed down their throat. Before jumping into solutions-mode, I like to take time to understand my clients' challenges, define their idea of success, and collaborate on the path to get there.

Mental health conditions that I specialize in treating include major depression, generalized and performance-related anxiety, bipolar, adjustment disorders. Symptoms often appear as disturbances in mood, emotional regulation, thought processes and behavior. Mental and physical health are interconnected where physical health is an integral part to mental health treatment. When physical activity is incorporated into therapeutic treatment, self-efficacy is strengthened. I offer individuals and families a program that combines therapy with an add-on of exercise.

Excellent psychotherapy offers a deep appreciation for an individual's thoughts, emotions and wishes. I try to establish a collaborative and interactive relationship with my clients. We work on trying to resolve areas of immediate distress as well as trying to understand how the past may be effecting your current situation. Regardless of what brings a person to therapy-a desire for deeper understanding of self, alleviation of symptoms is the main focus. I see a wide range of clients- including children and families, college students and adults. I have two broad areas of clinical practice.

Within each precious life, change is not only possible but inevitable. We can’t always avoid adversity, but we can always choose our response to it, and it is within this choice that we can find the potential for growth and freedom. Therapy allows us to pause, step back, reassess the situation we are facing, and finally to move in the direction of self-care, fulfillment and joy. My decades of teaching and practicing yoga/meditation have profoundly informed my therapeutic approach, allowing me to draw on a blend of Eastern mindfulness and Western cognitive psychology.
