I have dedicated all my academic and professional life to the study and treatment of anxiety and OCD-related disorders. Anxiety is very common, and many general therapists do an excellent job treating it. As a specialist, I tend to work with people who experience severe OCD and anxiety symptoms, have participated in residential or intensive programs (IOP, PHP), or have seen a number of therapists in the past, but have been unable to make progress. It is common for people with OCD and severe anxiety to also struggle with depression, relationship problems, etc. I can usually help people make progress in those areas, too!

Have you reached a point in your life where continuing down the same path seems impossible but you aren’t sure which direction you want to go? Or perhaps you know the direction you would like to move in but just aren’t quite sure how to get there? Maybe you get confused or overwhelmed by your emotions. You find yourself withdrawing, panicking, drinking, or using other coping strategies that served you in the past but no longer provide the relief you seek. These are common reasons clients choose to engage in therapy with me.

I work with women who are ready to stop feeling stressed, anxious, and burnt out, but can’t quite get over the hump by themselves.
Often clients come in outwardly successful – beautiful family, great career, always appearing as though they have it together. Inwardly, though, they can be experiencing high levels of anxiety, perfectionism, and a constant fear of dropping a ball. Sometimes even those closest to them do not realize how much they are struggling on the inside. Helping women align their internal and external experiences – to practice taking up space – is something I am wholly committed to.

“Changing the memories that form the way we see ourselves also changes the way we view others”. I appreciate building an alliance in therapy to create a safe space a client can use to process thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I use a cognitive behavioral approach, or IFS, to help clients find emotional freedom and produce change. I also have training in DBT for emotional regulation and anxiety, and EMDR to treat trauma and emotional distress. A hope I have for clients is to train the brain to live in the "gray" or to walk the middle path. I aim to help clients decrease emotional suffering that living in extremes can cause.

With over 30 years experience in community agency and private practice, I serve clients from wide ranging backgrounds, with an extensive range of presenting issues. I view "problem" behaviors in a non-pathologizing way: we're all trying our best, using self-protective approaches to life's challenges that we've developed along the way, some of which may no longer serve us well. I use a humanistic, mindfulness-based approach in a safe, accepting and confidential environment. With every client who enters my office, I am honored and inspired by the uniqueness of each individual as well as the commonality of our shared human experience
