Our broad goal––of course––is “the end of unnecessary suffering.” Sound about right? While we all strive for this, I specialize in helping folks with a very-unique kind of suffering: OCD. I can tell you that few people understand the pain and complexity of OCD—(even most therapists). I will listen intently to your unique story. Just know that I can introduce you to an arsenal of tools that can help: mindfulness, ERP (exposure and response prevention) and on and on. Yes, thoughts can be “sticky.” But––with hard work––if (or when) those thoughts come back around…they can be as quiet & as harmless as a yellow post-it.

Are you seeking change? Do you want to let go of what no longer serves you? Are you eager to feel better about yourself and your life? For over 30 years as a therapist, educator, and clinical supervisor, I have enjoyed empowering both individuals and couples to become their own therapist, developing profound insight and applying useful tools. I help my clients find their own inner guidance. They can then move from depression to joy, anxiety to calm, conflict to peace, and hopelessness to gratitude. They come to know themselves better, feel more confident, appreciate their unique inner gifts, and navigate their lives more smoothly.

Life happens and sometimes a lot of life is happening all at once. From relationship struggles, family planning/TTC/postpartum/Parenthood, career changes, navigating life transitions, gender & sexuality, family stressors, trauma, living through a global pandemic and the aftermath. It makes sense if you are feeling anxious, sad, unsure, lost, and overwhelmed. If any of these resonates with you, it’s time to prioritize your mental and emotional health.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety - whether it’s from external demands or internal struggles. Maybe it's social anxiety, "a life transition," or healing from trauma. Or maybe it's something more general, like you want to feel more "in control" of your emotions…and your life. I can help. Together, we’ll uncover the roots of your challenges, empowering you to move forward - with skill and confidence. I use “treatments that work” (CBT, DBT, mindfulness, etc). But we’ll find what works for YOU. Lastly, I don’t just want you to just “feel better.” I want you to live your best life. I'm looking forward to meeting you!
