I am a warm, engaging, interactive therapist. People tend to suffer alone with Depression, Anxiety, Relationship Distress, Eating Disorders, Grief over loss & Life Transition Complexities. We are all met with obstacles, unexpected curve-balls and difficult life challenges. I specialize in working with young adults who feel unprepared to deal with transitions to college, first jobs, relationships & sexual identity. Navigating necessary changes in family dynamics can be especially complicated as young adult separate and create space to develop and decide for themselves what their independent adult life will look like.
20 & 30 year olds question professional direction, relationships, body image, actualizing dreams & letting go of deeply entrenched- yet maladaptive -patterns of behavior. (ie swallowing feelings, denying needs, clinging to a belief I must be "perfect" etc.).
My patients and I go on a journey together to help identify underlying issues behind symptoms and develop better coping strategies to deal with those dynamics. I am certified in AAT (Animal Assisted Therapy). Henry Freud is my canine co-therapist. He is happy to offer comfort, encouragement, compassion & love. He also brings tissues if you need them.

Symptoms are solutions to problems. In order to alleviate pain associated with depression, anxiety and eating disorders, my patients and I go on a journey. We peel away layers of an onion in order to get to the root of the problem. We then work together to develop better coping strategies to deal effectively with those underlying issues. If you don't address the cause, symptoms will reappear.
