I love working with and helping people to live happier lives. In my years of experience working in the counseling field, I have assisted many people who struggle to function in their daily lives either because of a new hurdle or a life-long, mental health condition. Sometimes a person may feel hopeless, stuck, or unable to identify what holds them back. Other times, the client is in a new area of life that is unfamiliar or seems too intimidating to navigate. I strive to offer a compassionate, introspective, and collaborative setting where clients can feel free to explore the barriers that keep them from living their best lives.

I believe that coming to therapy when your life is not proceeding in the way you wish is a courageous and important step in building the life you want. Although it is sometimes difficult or frightening to make that first phone call, it's a strong sign of your belief in yourself and your desire to live fully and joyfully. I respect the decision to begin therapy and understand that it's sometimes a hard step that requires great courage. I firmly believe that however you're feeling now, there is a capacity for healing, change, and joy within you.

It's ok to ask for help. It's true that I can't erase your past or instantly take away your pain (although I wish I could). However, I can help you carry your burdens more lightly, whether that means adjusting to major life transitions, processing grief, or learning new ways of coping with anxiety. Additionally, I have expertise in health-related issues and enjoy working with clients around eating concerns, chronic illness (cancer, diabetes, etc.) and prenatal/postpartum mental health. I can offer you a new perspective and help you overcome emotional challenges. Therapy is your time to feel supported and understood.

If your world has become so fast paced or hectic that it is difficult to stay focused on your own needs, then psychotherapy may be helpful for you. It is easy to become frustrated, stressed and feel out of control with so many roles and obligations in life. I offer support and guidance for individuals who may feel as if they need someone to listen and support them in their endeavors. Don't wait until life has become so unmanageable that you feel hopeless or overwhelmed.

I treat significant mental health issues like PTSD and chronic depression, while also providing support for significant life adjustments: high school related stressors, transitioning to college, "helping profession" burnout, coping with medical residency stressors.
***NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS*** My overarching approach is Relationship-Based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. I find that integrating CBT with key therapeutic relationship factors such as validation, empathy, unconditional positive regard, and genuineness produce the best outcomes. When appropriate, I also utilize such approaches as mindfulness, acceptance, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) skills, and Trauma-Focused CBT and Prolonged Exposure for trauma. My goal is to not only reduce the distress from your presenting problems but also improve your overall well-being and experience personal growth across many facets of life.

I have often found that clients reach a point in their lives where they need help to manage stress due to relationship issues, work changes and parenting issues. I have been very successful at giving my clients the tools to manage life’s stressors. I am a very active therapist and give feedback and coping strategies to my clients so they can successfully end therapy and feel empowered to manage these situations on their own.
