We all experience change in life and because change is fluid, it can be negative or positive. When change occurs, especially unexpectedly, it can impact one's overall well being. It is important to establish a positive mindset to make dealing with change possible. With therapy, individuals can make healthy adjustments to their mindset to help navigate life changes. I have witnessed such growth through my experiences working with individuals of all ages and genders, couples, and families as they navigate through issues such as depression, anxiety, grief and loss, family/relationship conflicts, and more.

I hope for a patient who maintains open communication with me, feels comfortable sharing anything that troubles them, and knows they will never be judged.

As a counselor, I believe that everyone needs support, and that support can increase or decrease throughout our lives. Everyone experiences challenges at different points in their life and may require extra support to get back on track. My focus is on helping clients determine places where they feel stuck or struggling and help them work toward insight, healing, and growth. My passion is grief work, especially sibling loss. Grief brings so many emotions to the surface. Let's face and work through those emotions together.

We are living in times where it's hard to feel grounded and secure. The world keeps changing, and most of the time we don't know what is real. This causes most of us to feel anxious and fearful of the world. These are the moments where we must seek shelter in ourselves. To look within to find that feeling of safety and comfort. But that's easier said that done, right? I can help. If you are someone who is willing to look inside, to take back control of your world, to gain insight, and feel empowered in yourself, then I would like to be part of your journey.

I feel that finding a therapist you 'click with' is one of the most important factors in this search. Life is confusing - people are complicated - the world can be overwhelming - and change can be hard. Therapy is an incredible tool of self-discovery and empowerment. "Good" therapy can be life-changing. Whatever it is you bring in the room, we will work together to identify what is weighing on you or holding you back, untangle threads of old patterns, 'undo' outdated beliefs, and root out any 'stuckness'. Main goals are skill-building, acceptance, empathy, and confidence built from encouraging & appreciating your whole person.

My specialty is working with children, adolescents and adults struggling with OCD and anxiety. I previously worked at McLean’s residential OCD facility and Rogers' anxiety/OCD residential, partial and intensive programs. For anxiety and OCD, the gold-standard therapy is a powerful approach called exposure therapy (ERP). Through this systematic process people learn how to face their fears and no longer be controlled by them, which provides a liberating and confidence building experience. I also use a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and compassion-focused therapy (CFT).
