About My Clients

I serve adults who struggle primarily with anxiety issues - the fear that something terrible is going to happen, the racing thoughts, hearts pounding and stomachs churning. I help clients to build a "tool kit" that they can reach into to help manage/reduce these symptoms and get back to enjoying their lives, rather than living in constant fear.

My Background and Approach

I primarily draw from the cognitive behavioral approach to therapy, but I am largely a person-centered therapist who seeks to meet you where you are and proceed from there. Unconditional positive regard is a forefront of my therapy philosophy, as I know that acceptance alone is healing. I see myself as your equal, not an authority figure. Therapy is a journey we take together. I will weave elements of solution-focused and interpersonal psychotherapy into my therapeutic approach when appropriate.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Adulting is hard, and I will support you through all the stress and help you with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship problems, and other distress. I believe that the time you spend outside of therapy is even more important than the time spent in it, so I provide you with tools to take with into the real world. You and I will work together to identify concrete, attainable goals for your treatment and then guide you along the path we create.
