I am a licensed psychologist providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for anxiety and mood disorders, ADHD, Tics/Tourette's and impulse control disorders including hair-pulling and skin picking. I am trained in Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) as well as evidence-based treatment for Selective Mutism. Life is full of transitions, and these changes can be associated with anxiety, uncertainty and stressors that are difficult to manage. I provide care during these times, offering an empathic and empirically-informed approach to reduce distress and allow clients to overcome their challenges.

It is inevitable that our lives are consumed with daily challenges and obstacles. For each of us, our ability to manage those challenges differs; or, we settle and adapt much to the detriment of our emotional wellbeing and feeling as though there is no end in sight. Therapy provides an opportunity to examine those challenges and reframe them into a new, positive perspective. When we are able to see our way through and discover solutions to those problems from a position of strength, it can take on a whole new meaning.

Sometimes life does not go they way you thought it would. Common problems addressed in therapy include adjustment to life changes/transitions, relationship problems, and stressful circumstances. You may not be able to control the problem, but you can control your next choice. We may explore how earlier life experiences may contribute to issues or ongoing patterns. I also specialize in college mental health counseling and enjoy helping young adults plan for their future. I value open communication, honest feedback, and generate a safe place to talk. Check out my website for more info about areas of specialty and my approach to care.

Offering in-person and virtual sessions! I come with a curiosity about attachment and early stages of development. My treatment approach is to help restore connection to yourself and your relationships through psychodynamic and trauma-informed therapies. Many people share how their negative beliefs and emotional discomfort can “feel stuck” in their mind and nervous system. I work with clients to resolve present day problems and longstanding patterns in their lives (anxiety, phobias, PTSD, Depression and so on.) through the integration of mind, body and brain processing techniques.

You’ve been together for so long, yet lately it feels like you're drifting apart. The once familiar warmth and comfort have been replaced by an unsettling feeling of being strangers in your own home. Conversations that used to flow effortlessly now feel strained. The vibrant and passionate connection has faded, leaving you feeling disconnected and alone. Have you fallen into a monotonous routine, a cycle of rejection and emotional distance, and your communication has suffered? Do you want to feel that love and closeness you once had, and repair what you've lost to build a stronger, more fulfilling relationship together?

If you are experiencing a roadblock or facing a potentially new path or way to live, our work together would include reframing the roadblock as a potential crossroads in which neglected parts of yourself could be explored so as to live a life of greater authenticity, integrity and wholeness. With over 20 years experience, I specialize in "transitions" or what many people experience as either blocks or bridges in their lives as well as the stress that accompanies them. Even good change can be stressful and in some languages, the word for crisis actually means "opportunity."
