I have helped adults, adolescents, and families with a broad range of difficulties, including excessive anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, history of domestic violence and/or childhood trauma, etc.
I view counseling as a partnership between the client and myself. I see my role as enabling people to explore ways to heal from emotional hurt, to discover pathways toward more effective and positive ways of thinking, and to adopt helpful patterns of behavior. Through counseling, I help people recognize their strengths; encourage individuals to take responsibility for their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors; and assist people in making and implementing effective decisions.
Using an integrative approach to counseling, the techniques I use are cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, solution-focused, and interpersonal. I utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy and family system theories.

I work with adolescents and adults around areas of anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. Through the therapeutic relationship, as well as examining interpersonal relationships and family dynamics, we can better understand painful and difficult experiences. We work to identify motivations, reactions, patterns, and automatic assumptions. This understanding helps gently guide the healing process and empowers the individual to approach their own behaviors with curiosity rather than shame. I have a special interest in working with adolescent girls around issues of self-esteem, anxiety and identity.
