About My Clients

Just because you put others first doesn't mean you have to put yourself last. Burnout is a thief of many things: your zest, your why, and any semblance of peace. Are you constantly hard on yourself for not "doing" enough, or inundated with so many demands at work, school, or home that you need a skilled, listening ear to help you reclaim your vitality? I would be glad to speak to see whether working together can help you stay and do well.

My Background and Approach

My specialty: Providing evidence-based interventions to lessen the harmful consequences of emotional exhaustion, anxiety, and stress. I work with high achievers using applied CBT, mindfulness, and proven behavioral science methods. My approach: Collaborative, creative, solution-focused, and strengths-based-rooted in decades of clinical and teaching work. Please know that I recognize the vulnerability that comes with seeking the right help. I offer: A caring, collaborative approach. Confidentiality and privacy • In-person sessions (or combined Telehealth option) • A small, serene office space situated in a vibrant neighborhood • Practical, creative, evidence-based strategies.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Burnout is a thief of many things: your zest, your why, and any semblance of peace. In many cases it also affects our physical health, our ability to enjoy anything at all. This is because the systems we’re trying to function within are often dysfunctional. They can become incubators of burnout and indisposition. To survive, and thrive it requires strategic action—and lots of creative work-arounds. My life’s work has been devoted to addressing burnout for those working within health and human services and educational settings. This work is never a one size fits all approach. I want to help you take the best discoveries of behavioral science and use them effectively according to your own needs and variables to nurture and sustain your well-being. I also want to help you reactivate joy, creativity, and fun in your life. I take humor seriously—and am not one of those therapists to give you a proverbial head nod and never crack a smile. Not all issues need tissues.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
