I am a counselor and licensed psychotherapist working with teens, young adults, and men and women of all ages struggling with the devaluation of self, depression, anxiety, anger, eating disordered behaviors, substance abuse, and life transitions. My approaches include psychodynamic (connecting the painful past with current problems), cognitive(reframing negative beliefs) and a solution focused therapy, at all times building on the unique strengths of each client. I also practice EMDR - a technique designed to alleviate distress by accessing deep-rooted thoughts and feelings that need resolution.

I am passionate about supporting people on their journeys of self-exploration, empowerment, and healing. While this journey looks different for everyone, therapy provides us with a unique opportunity to learn more about ourselves: our identities, the people and places that have shaped us, and life experiences. I have deep respect for the courage it takes to show up for ourselves in this way and believe we can do so with curiosity and compassion.

Here are the most common problems in relationships: poor communication skills; infidelity; unhealthy conflict resolution; inadequately managed time together due to life’s expectations; disparate sexual intimacy; lack of trust; different financial goals/illiteracy; inability to honor each other's boundaries; unwillingness to meet your partner's needs. I have seen these issues and more resolved in my decades of caring for couples and their struggling relationships. Are you beginning to notice any of these patterns in your relationship? Do you need help? I understand. I see you. You are not alone. Let me help you heal together.

Ideally, therapy has been shown to have the best outcomes when you feel like your therapist gets you. Therapy is a relationship, rather than a set of instructions. My approach is warm, interactive, practical, and empathic, and I draw from relational, feminist, trauma-informed, anti-racist treatment models. I believe in the healing power of the therapeutic relationship, along with helping you contextualize your life experiences, honoring your expertise in your own life.

When people are considering therapy, often the hardest step is making a first phone call. I have deep respect for the process of choosing a therapist and value the steps one must undertake in order to find the perfect fit.

This means that we will tailor your treatment to fit your needs and interests. The best outcomes are achieved when you feel comfortable with the person you are working with and together we will create a space that feels safe.

My specialty is trauma, with the understanding that trauma is often not just one major event, but also the cumulative effect of both severe and more subtle traumas over a lifetime, ranging from emotional deprivation, bullying, verbal abuse to rejections and perceived failures. Since I believe that trauma contributes to most issues, I work with a broad range of patients, including those struggling with interpersonal problems, having difficulty reaching personal and professional goals, or lacking confidence and positive self-image.
