I treat teenagers, college students, and adults with issues ranging from anxiety and mood disorders to adjusting to life changes (such as relationship challenges, new parenthood, aging, and chronic medical conditions). I balance evidence-based practices with building a comfortable relationship to allow patients to share concerns freely. After getting to know my patients and their circumstances, I work with them to identify where they may challenge their beliefs and try new strategies. Depending on your concerns, you might work with me on exposure therapy, social and communication skills, mindfulness, and emotion regulation.

It happened again. You were sitting in traffic, thinking about your day, when panic suddenly hit. Your chest tightened, and you couldn’t catch your breath. Your palms began to sweat, and your face became flushed. You wondered to yourself, "Is everything about to unravel?!" You never know when these overwhelming emotions will hit, and it’s terrifying. You don’t need this added burden right now – between family dinners, work assignments, doctor’s appointments, paying bills, organizing your house, and everything else, things are already so hectic. You hate to let people down, but you can’t keep going like this.

We all experience stress in our lives, but sometimes that stress is overwhelming and we have trouble coping. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can be an incredibly effective tool to help manage anxiety, depression, and other stress-related difficulties. CBT focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in everyday life. As a cognitive-behavioral therapist, my approach is collaborative, individualized, and based on scientific evidence.
