Navigating life’s complexities can be challenging, and finding fulfillment in our relationships and ourselves can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially when stress disrupts our sense of control. I'm here to support you in regaining that balance and clarity. Do you find communication difficult? Are you quick to anger or struggling with unhealthy coping mechanisms? Is your relationship facing obstacles? My approach is rooted in a systemic perspective, recognizing that our experiences, family dynamics, and cultural background shape who we are and influence our challenges.

I’ve been a licensed psychotherapist for many years and now retired. Over the span of my career, I’ve worked with children, adults and families to help them achieve a higher quality of life. This is why people seek out therapy. I recognize when people experience symptoms of mental health conditions, such as anxiety, adult ADHD, depression, stress, or struggles that arise in work, friends, close/marital and family relationships can often lead to feeling trapped. If you’re seeking help to overcome these challenges that stand in the way of living the quality of life you want, I can help.

I work with children, teens and young adults who struggle with anxiety, OCD, life transitions, identity, and LGBTQ+ issues. Clients often begin therapy with me in search of relief from OCD/anxiety, support with transitions into college or adulthood, self-acceptance, identity exploration, ways to create more meaningful relationships with others, or parenting support. I also work with parents using SPACE to provide insight and teach skills that allow them to confidently support and respond to their child/teen struggling with OCD/anxiety. I am certified in and offer PCIT for children 7 and younger with behavioral challenges.

NOW Accepting New Clients! It’s not surprising you’re feeling lost, confused, anxious, or depressed thinking about adulthood. Our brains continue to develop well into our mid-20s, yet society expects us to have things figured out by then. In today’s world, people wait much longer to meet the traditional milestones of the generations before us, and then are just expected to know how to navigate everything in the meantime. This is where I come in. I can help you find your way through. And I can do that without any expectations or preconceived notions. No judgment. Just support and encouragement.

My ideal clients want change, but they aren't sure it's possible. If they know it's possible, maybe they're frustrated things aren't different yet. I specialize in working with adults and young adults experiencing anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and co-occurring depression. Partially due to my past as a lawyer, I have significant experience working with individuals in high-stress, professional careers and highly technical fields. Also, I'm neurodiversity-affirming and enjoy helping adults explore the significance of late life diagnosis.

Athletic culture often praises the ability to do it all, however, we all experience issues that cannot be masked or pushed aside. I provide athletes a place of understanding support to work through issues such as eating concerns, body image, anxiety, depression, injury, post-sports career, relationships, substance use, or traumatic events. Athletes devote tremendous time and energy to physical training, and I believe intentionality with mental health is just as important for improving quality of life, and for improved sports performance.

Do you often feel misunderstood? Have you been told to toughen up because you are "too sensitive"? Do you long to feel closer to others but feel overwhelmed by the task? Having the capacity for depth and complexity can be difficult to navigate in our competitive, linear-oriented, results-driven culture. Knowing and accepting yourself for simply "you" (not who others think you should be) is an important practice to cultivate and will help release toxic stress and shame, allowing you to connect more deeply with yourself and others.
