About My Clients
I work with individuals dealing with OCD, life transitions, challenging family dynamics, work/life imbalance, coping with neurodivergence in a neurotypical world, and dating/relationship stressors. Together we will dedicate time and space to addressing the challenges you’re facing, and look at how they affect your ability to live the life you want to live. I have worked with adults of all ages - college students to seniors - and enjoy working with people throughout the lifespan.
My Background and Approach
I love helping my clients identify the strategies that work for them, so you can see tangible differences in your mental health and quality of life. I use a number of different techniques, including cognitive and somatic (body-based), tailoring them to each individual client. For treating OCD, I am trained in Inference-based CBT and ERP.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I humbly strive to bring anti-racist and anti-biased perspectives and practices into my personal and professional life. I have worked to educate myself about the fat acceptance, HAES, and body positivity/neutrality communities. As a student of Thich Nhat Hanh's teachings for over 15 years, I bring mindfulness into my work when appropriate. I am neurodiversity affirming, and focus much of my professional development on increasing my knowledge of how neurodivergence shows up in adult women and the ways I can support my ND clients. If you've ever been told "you can't be autistic, you make eye contact!" or had your parent scoff at the idea that you're ADHD, I may be the right therapist for you. I also focus professional development on continued training and peer consultation in Inference-based CBT for OCD, a non-exposure, evidence-based treatment which is a great alternative to ERP. Don't worry if this is all alphabet soup to you - I'm happy to answer questions in a consultation call!
