**Currently have a waitlist** We all reach points in our lives where things feel challenging or even completely overwhelming.

I am here to support you in reaching your goals by being both completely non-judgmental and supportive and also challenging you at times in the process of self exploration.

My approach to therapy comes from a person centered lens and systems approach. In short, this means I approach every person that I have the honor to work with as the experts on their own lives and the many factors that effect their overall well-being. I approach every client with curiosity and unconditional positive regard while guiding them to see themselves through this lens as well. In session, patients can expect talk therapy with principles of behavior change techniques weaved in to provide some tools to meet their personal goals.

My team and I help individuals and couples. Our ideal client is someone who's interested in both healing and growth, who is goal oriented, and knows that how we make sense of things is fundamental. The symptoms about which we suffer are also an invitation to remember what we couldn't handle so that we heal and grow. I'm best suited to treating you where you're stuck, be it physical (like chronic pain, auto-immune), mental (like anxiety), emotional (like depression), relational (partners, children, parents, people you work with), and spiritual (like alienation).

Ready to make some changes? Sometimes it's really hard for us to ask for help-especially as a strong female. Therapy is a great way to affect personal change, learn more about yourself, & grow through any challenges you might be facing.I help women through the transition of pregnancy, birth, & postpartum mood issues. Perimenopause/menopause is also a great time to come to therapy. I also help women who want to change their relationship with food and their bodies. And, clients see me for managing anxiety & depression. For trauma work, I like to use Brainspotting/EFT. I also offer online therapy in MA, CA, CT, FL,& AZ.

We want to feel peace and joy in this life. And mental health issues can make that difficult or nearly impossible to experience. I have experience treating clients with anxiety, OCD, depression, low self-esteem, and stressful life transitions which might look like racing thoughts, trouble sleeping or relaxing, difficulty getting rid of a particular thought or worry, feeling bad about yourself and the world, frequent tearfulness, or feelings of overwhelm. I provide a non-judgmental space to understand what you are experiencing. I work alongside clients to figure out what changes will get you to a place of well-being.
