Are you having difficulty finding the confidence in romantic relationships? You’re successful in your academic or career life, but for some reason the world of relationships and dating feels like rocket science. You’re terrified of being rejected and feel intimidated at the idea of initiating contact with a woman. Maybe you’ve been rejected before and the idea of starting over in the dating world seems daunting and gives you anxiety. Or maybe you feel entirely directionless in all facets of your life and you can’t find the motivation or direction to feel the confidence you need to live a life where you feel fulfilled.

Understanding the client’s reason for attending therapy and engaging them in decision-making from the outset of treatment is important to me. I believe this encourages motivation for ongoing attendance and a willingness to change. I offer trauma informed care and I am trained in various evidenced based treatments. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and couples. I work collaboratively with my clients to understand and help them meet their goals. I believe it takes a lot to make that first call and I don't take it lightly.

My treatment approach combines the latest advances in Western neuroscience with evidence-based mindfulness practices rooted in Eastern philosophies. I primarily utilize two complementary modalities - Experiential Dynamic Therapy (EDT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS). These are evidenced based and trauma-informed treatments that aim to address the root causes of psychological suffering rather than simply addressing the outlying symptoms.

I specialize in working with teens and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, adjustment, and trauma.
