People initiate therapy for many different reasons: a major life transition, to better navigate their relationships, or to begin healing from trauma. I work with my clients to help them gain insight around their thoughts, feelings and patterns, and ultimately make conscious change in their lives.

Many of us find ourselves struggling with persistent feelings, patterns, and reactions that hold us back. Perhaps you’ve tried psychotherapy before, and you have a good understanding of your problems but they haven’t changed. Or perhaps you 'know' that you are capable, worthy, and appreciated by others, but at your core, you don't feel this way. I believe that much of the time, symptoms develop from negative life experiences that have not been fully resolved.

Seeking relief from unpleasant feelings like sadness, irritability, anxiety, depression, anger & grief? When you struggle emotionally, small things can require greater effort. You may have feelings or reactions you can’t explain that defy your best strategies for feeling better. Perhaps you find yourself repeating patterns of behavior you’re not proud of. Or lack interest in pursuits you once enjoyed. Maybe you envision a happier, more productive life but don’t know how to get it. Therapy can help you identify and harness your strengths while adapting and altering patterns that don’t serve you well.

I am currently accepting new clients for daytime, virtual sessions. I help young adults struggling with trauma, anxiety, OCD, self-doubt, and harsh inner critics to learn how to relate to themselves and to the world differently so that they can live lives of greater authenticity, belonging, and purpose. We can work through trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, shame and guilt, decision making, emotional regulation, feeling lost or purposeless, and building tangible coping skills. I utilize principles of Internal Family Systems (or "parts work"), psychodynamic, somatic, and mindfulness-based therapies, as well as ERP.

The past few years have been a slog for even the most resilient of us, and seeking outside support can be a powerful way to care for yourself. I work with clients to address a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, addiction, chronic illness, challenging relationships, life transitions, and job stress. I offer support for those struggling during the perinatal period as well as in parenting in an increasingly anxious world.

Hi there! I’m happy that you’re here and willing to take a look at things in your life through a perspective of change. Change is the only constant in life. Change is uncomfortable but if you’ve made it to this point, I encourage you to continue to choose yourself and take charge of your life. I’m here to take clinical words or taboo ideas and see how they might firstly, make sense in your situation and secondly, apply to your day-to-day in concrete ways. I am not here to give you answers rather ask the right questions that help you discover or accept answers yourself. Let’s move forward together!
