I believe individuals and families come into therapy with a great deal of strength to help themselves and each other. I see my job as helping people to unlock these strengths, see what patterns have blocked them from seeing them, and find ways to use them more effectively to realize their goals. I work to help people get as much joy as possible from their relationships and from their lives in general.

I believe strongly that clients come in all different shapes and sizes and from different walks of life. Therefore, I do not have an ideal client, as my wish is to help anyone who needs it regardless of their experiences, needs, and goals. I welcome the experiences I will gain from having diverse clients.

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.

I view good emotional and psychological health as boiling down to one word: perspective. With good perspective, we feel better; when we "lose perspective," we feel less well. With good perspective, we discover that our vulnerability and insecurities don't make us (or others) "weak." We accept that feeling insecure, confused, lost, scared and uncertain makes us human, not deficient. We can learn to embrace our vulnerability without shame, while addressing what impedes us from pursuing meaningful connections and goals.

I thrive when working with young women. Whether they’re struggling with school-related stress or struggling to process a breakup, I can quickly build rapport with folks in this demographic. My treatment plans include goals dedicated to helping people identify their triggers for emotional dysregulation. I believe in the importance of somatic and cognitive level wellness strategies and work to have my clients learn and implement both sets of skills. I have enjoyed working with a variety of diagnoses, including adjustment disorder, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and PTSD.

Same bed, but worlds apart. Maybe you’re in even sleeping in separate rooms at this point. You spend your days, side by side with a person yet still feel achingly alone? You used to be allies, you felt understood. Easily understood. Now you've got to bend over backward to be slightly heard and feel like it's a waste of your breath. Maybe you have no idea when things shifted, maybe you know precisely. One thing you know for certain, is that you want out. Not necessarily out of your marriage, but out of the sad, frustrating place that you’re stuck in. But without a path, it’s just not happening.

Life can be pretty difficult at times; however, therapy provides an opportunity to find utility in strategies for negotiating stress. With over 10 years of clinical experience, I strive to provide both evidence based and culturally competent treatment for a wide range of individuals. Additionally, I incorporate salient aspects of current research while also considering the impact of culture (i.e., race, gender, ability, spirituality, sexual orientation). We will work collaboratively towards accomplishing your goals for treatment while also exploring individualized factors connected to the objectives.
