Currently accepting new clients!- Are you struggling to find balance in your life? Do you set high standards for yourself and feel like a failure if you don’t reach those goals? You may experience high anxiety and need control at all times. It can be exhausting and overwhelming all at once.

I have advanced training in behavioral weight loss, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness.
I help clients build rich, meaningful lives that are physically and psychologically more healthful. I specialize in weight management, eating behavior, and health behavior change (including sleep). I regularly treat concerns related to weight, body image, and eating (including binge eating and emotional or mindless eating). I can support patients pre- and post- bariatric surgery and those using weight loss medications. I also deliver short-term behavioral treatments for sleep problems such as insomnia. In addition, I treat depression, anxiety, and difficulties adjusting to life transitions and medical conditions.

I am licensed psychologist with extensive specialized training in neuropsychology. I've evaluated 100s of patients with complex psychiatric and neurological difficulties. I believe the first step to overcoming one's difficulties is understanding the underlying causes. In order to understand my patients, I rely on thorough assessment of their presenting difficulties, medical history and personal experiences. I use this information to create personalized, comprehensive evaluations of emotional and cognitive functioning. This allows me to determine the causes of their difficulties and devise effective treatment recommendations.

My work is informed by psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment therapies.
Are your relationships strained or disappointing? Is it difficult to manage your thoughts, feelings, or behaviors? Do you feel stuck, worry, feel sad, or have thoughts that you’re not good enough? Whatever you are struggling with, you do not need to suffer alone. We can work together to change things that are not working for you. I provide a supportive, accepting, judgment-free space where you can heal and grow. Therapy makes change possible and facilitates deeply meaningful growth so that you may experience greater joy, have more fulfilling relationships, be more productive, and feel more satisfied.

I employ a person-centered approach and utilize trauma-informed methods (Family Constellations, Gestalt, CBT and others) to create a therapeutically nurturing, boundaried, and intentionally collaborative relationship with you.
You are facing a significant life challenge. Maybe it's the death of an important person, or the end of a relationship, or simply a natural life change. Possibly it is another type of challenge, such as recovery from addiction or trauma. Maybe your child is experiencing their own difficulties and you want to help them, but you aren't sure how. You have questions and concerns: Is what I'm feeling ok? How do I best help and support myself and/or my child? How will I re-make my life? What does healing mean to me ... and who am I as I undertake that process? Your questions are valid, and exploring them could be helpful.

I provide individual therapy working from an integrative treatment approach that draws largely from cognitive-behavioral, and acceptance and commitment therapy techniques, while attuning to the relational learning and dynamics that influence my client's experience of self in relation to others.
People seek out therapy for a variety of reasons, such as to address an already identified concern, to develop a particular coping skill set, or to enhance self-confidence and quality of life. I work to establish a trusting therapeutic relationship within which a client can share their unique story with a felt sense of validation, empathy, and hope. I work collaboratively with clients as we bare witness to the client's lived experiences looking through a lens of compassionate curiosity and establishing empowered self-agency that leads to patterns of intentional action and overall well-being.

Working under the supervision of Bonnie Marshall and Katie Bateman, I am passionate about working with teens and young adults who struggle to navigate growing up in the era of social media and smartphones. I help my clients change their behaviors, thoughts and beliefs in a way that improves their feelings of self-esteem, self-worth and acceptance. My work with clients enables them to navigate the parts of their past that impact their present. Though diagnosis and treatment modalities such as DBT and CBT are part of my practice, focusing on the individual as a whole is the most important element of my therapeutic approach.

But there's good news - with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), you can learn the skills necessary to regain control of your life, quickly and efficiently.
Life can be hard sometimes. Just when you think that things are going well, anxiety and depression can strike at a moment's notice, leaving you feeling lost, confused, and not sure where to turn. Your mood begins to sink, as you try desperately to stay afloat, only to face more adversity with each tug. You begin to cast judgment on yourself, lose hope, and fill your mind with self-deprecating banter. Health problems - old and new - may complicate the picture, leaving you feeling even more vulnerable to life's misfortunes.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists
How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?
Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.
When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.
How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.
Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
