About My Clients
At A Better Understanding, I specialize in providing individual therapy to teens and adults that present with a variety of anxiety concerns, depression, and trauma. I also work with those seeking services for interpersonal problems, problems with adjustment and transitions, and personal growth. I am often sought out by college and graduate/professional students, professionals in service industries (e.g., healthcare providers), and teens and adults that are in high stakes environments.
My Background and Approach
I have deep experience in working with adolescents and adults who are ready to engage with their emotions, face discomfort, and take meaningful action toward the life they want. I bring a calm, thoughtful, and compassionate presence to my work as a psychologist. My approach is steady and deliberate, combining insight, warmth, and structured support to help you move toward greater clarity, resilience, and independence in your life. I practice from a values-driven, evidence-based framework when treating anxiety and associated concerns, specifically interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (EX/RP), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These approaches help you develop a deeper understanding of relationships between thoughts, feelings, and our actions while equipping you with practical strategies to manage your anxiety and depression differently.
