I work with clients struggling with anxiety and OCD in an approachable, warm environment. I'm here to provide support through the hard times, and encouragement for taking on the challenges of treatment, with lots of experience to guide the way. I have a particular passion for working with new parents, and those hoping to become parents, who are navigating the road to parenthood, and all the anxieties, worries, and identity shifts that come with it.

Currently accepting new patients. I believe each person has an innate capacity for growth and self-awareness just waiting to be explored. If you are navigating challenging life transitions, a blend of personal and professional challenges, have relationship issues, dealing with feelings of uncertainty, self-doubt, lack of fulfillment in various aspects of your life, or perhaps on a quest for a deeper sense of self-discovery, an existential-integration approach may provide a collaborative and compassionate space for you to reflect upon your experiences, gain clarity about your values, and deepen your understanding of yourself.

Something is not ok. Maybe you can't stop worrying, and stress wakes you up at night and you can't turn off your brain. Maybe there are things that you can't talk to your friends about. A relationship has ended, or you've found yourself in the same kind of relationship again. Maybe someone you love has died and you don't know what to do, or it's been a while and people think you should be "over it" by now. Maybe you've just gotten a scary diagnosis. Maybe you have a decision to make and need help figuring out what to do. Being human is really, really hard sometimes; being in therapy can help.

The decision to seek therapy is positive and courageous! It is important to find the right therapist to help you with your problems. I take an integrative and collaborative approach to therapy which is client centered and goal driven. I create a safe and non-judgmental space where we work together to solve problems, overcome obstacles, and facilitate personal and relational growth. I assess the biological, psychological and social aspects of a person, couple or family, using a balance of approaches that are attachment based and include insight-oriented and cognitive behavior therapies to treat depression/anxiety, grief, trauma, etc.

If you’re looking for answers, I don’t have them. But if you’re looking for someone to help you face the tough questions, you’re in the right place. Questions like “Why do I feel stuck?”, “What do I truly want?”, or “How can I change my circumstances?” can be hard to navigate on your own. I have 20 years of experience helping patients reclaim their happiness from the effects of anxiety, depression, loss of motivation, stress and perfectionism. I work with individuals, mother-daughter relationships, siblings, and help couples redefine their relationships after time or troubles erode familiar routes to connection. Therapy can help.
