About My Clients

I work with both adults and adolescents age 13 and up, and provide individual, couples, and family therapy.

My Background and Approach

I understand that living with symptoms or that feel overwhelming can rupture confidence in yourself and in your ability to handle life's challenges. My goal is to help clients repair and deepen this trust in themselves over the course of therapy. No matter how great the challenges, I believe that we are all capable of growth and healing. I incorporate multiple modalities into my practice, including EMDR. I am experienced in treating trauma, mood disorders, anxiety, psychosis, OCD, PMDD and post-partum concerns. I also specialize in helping clients process history of psychiatric hospitalization, especially if these experiences have been difficult. You are the expert on your own situation and experiences. As a therapist, I aim to understand each clients perspective without making assumptions or jumping to conclusions. I am committed to creating a therapeutic space that is safe and accessible. If you have questions or would like to schedule a consultation, please reach out!
