I have several specialties: cognitive behavioral therapy for anxiety disorders (such as panic disorder, excessive worrying, OCD, social anxiety), assessment of ADHD among older adolescent and adults, couples counseling, adolescent therapy, and I am intensively trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy.
You may be experiencing anxiety, depression, emotional sensitivity, relationship issues or difficulty focusing. I have extensive experience as a doctoral-level cognitive behavioral therapist and I believe helping individuals understand how their thoughts and behaviors contribute to intense emotions is key to mental health. Challenging unhealthy thinking and learning how to think differently can be very effective. I teach specific and diverse skills and coach people on using them in real-life situations. I often share behavioral management techniques to help clients gain control over repetitive or compulsive actions and reduce anxiety in feared situations.

I focus on creating a safe space where children, adolescents, and adults can express themselves freely.
I provide individual therapy to children, teens, and adults from a variety of cultural backgrounds. Though talking in therapy is helpful, it’s sometimes easier to communicate non-verbally, which is why I also use techniques like art, play, and writing in my practice to support children/teens in expressing themselves in developmentally feasible ways. I’ve worked with individuals as young as 3 up to middle adulthood. I specialize in challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, autism, sensory processing, adjusting/coping with life changes, issues in school and/or social situations, and low self esteem.

This treatment approach has been shown to be effective with children, adolescents, and adults with anxiety, depression, and trauma.
The lotus flower is a powerful symbol of faith, endurance, and resourcefulness. They are revered because these delicate and beautiful plants grow deep in the murky swamp. The dormant seed lies hidden in the mud until the flower is ready to blossom into view. I believe that each person holds within them the seed of the life that they desire.

During difficult times I strive to help others ground themselves in the present and utilize healthy ways of coping. I have worked with problems such as depression, anxiety, life transitions, loss, separation and relationship difficulties as well as more chronic and severe mental health concerns. I enjoy working with adults who are interested in reflecting on their most significant past and present relationships and life experiences in an attempt to deeply understand and manage current stressors.

I work primarily with teenagers and their families, young adults and with men and their partners.
You are struggling to find purpose and meaning in life. You make it through the day but it feels like a real uphill battle. You may even feel like you’ve hit rock bottom. All of life’s responsibilities—school, work, peer interactions, family relationships—it just feels like too much to manage on your own. You question why this is happening to you. There may have been a time when you felt like you were moving in the right direction, but now you feel isolated and perhaps depressed or anxious. You are wondering where to turn for help.
