Emotions, transitions, and life challenges can feel overwhelming for many people. My goal is to help you feel more in control, find peace in your day-to-day, and work towards your goals for wellness.

Together, we’ll work towards understanding your emotions and behaviors in a supportive, empathetic, nonjudgmental environment. My style is warm, collaborative, strength-based and goal oriented. I focus on a holistic approach to counseling and meeting you where you are at in your process.

I am a social worker focused primarily on helping those with a wide variety of mental health concerns. With a background in therapeutic communities, I believe it is essential to protect the dignity and humanity of a patient no matter the extent of their suffering. My work is guided by psychoanalysis and phenomenology, which allow me to collaboratively explore the meaning of one's difficulties with a patient in the context of their life to alleviate rather than manage symptoms. I pride myself on work with clients who are apprehensive about therapy, have stalled in therapy in the past, are skeptical of modern paradigms of mental health, have had unusual experiences or have unusual spiritual beliefs, have been called too smart for their own good or have otherwise been made to feel difficult.
As a therapist, I believe that the journey to growth and healing is a very personal one. My aim is to guide you to your goals with a therapeutic plan that works best for you. I strive to create a safe and comfortable environment for clients to work on a variety of issues such as anxiety, depression, life changes, improving communication, and more. I am emotion and person-focused and will work to tailor my therapeutic style toward a client’s personal needs. I utilize a variety of modalities including psychodynamic, CBT, strengths-based, relational therapy, and art therapy.
“I want to feel happier and less depressed.” “We would like to improve our relationship.” “I would like to feel calmer and more in control, in spite of the stress, loss and trauma I have experienced.” “We want to help our children cope with our divorce.” “We need to figure out how we are going to live as a divorced family.” These are some of the most frequent goals of my clients as we work together. Many of the stresses and conflicts my clients face can be due to life’s experiences and losses or can come from within. Stress and conflict can lead to disintegration of relationships with our partners and our children, and even in how we view ourselves. Strengthening coping skills, emotional connection and intimacy can help repair fractures, increase compassionate understanding, and build closeness. Focusing on positive growth, shifting well-engrained patterns, and building greater self-acceptance can create lasting change and happiness. As a clinical psychologist with over 40 years of experience, I help adults, couples and families, by integrating many different therapeutic approaches to best fit my clients’ needs.
I have been practicing as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor since 2005. Most of my experience has been on college and university campuses.

I take an eclectic approach with patients and try to meet each patient's needs in a collaborative way. Feel free to contact me for an initial consultation.
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who has worked as a parent coach before transitioning to an in-home family therapist and now an outpatient trauma therapist. I work with all ages to provide support, education, and coaching to restructure limiting beliefs. My goal is to provide a supportive, non judgmental environment to set and reach goals while instilling hope for change. I explore various perspectives of the issues presented and offer coping strategies to address and manage symptoms. I utilize various interventions including TF-CBT, motivational interviewing, and narrative therapy. I strive to ensure a good fit between myself and my clients by providing a safe environment. I take a collaborative approach to the work being done. I'm open-minded, curious, and seek to utilize strengths to reach goals. I aim to provide support and education so clients do not feel alone in their pain. I tailor treatment approach to the individual's needs.
I work collaboratively with students who face a variety of challenges, including life transitions, relationship issues, and navigating queer identities. College and graduate school typically occur at pivotal developmental points for people in terms of figuring out who they are, what they want, and separating/individuating from parental figures. Together, we will work to understand your inner life, what works and what doesn't in terms of your thinking, behavior and ways of relating to others. Often, patterns develop that help us stay safe and secure when we're young, but would benefit from re-examination and modification to live a more fulfilling adult life. I have a sub-specialty working with people with Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), a highly distressing fixation on a perceived appearance defect that can impact daily functioning and quality of life. I help you understand where the appearance fixation originated, including negative self appraisals and rituals/compulsions that accompany BDD. Learning to face feared and avoided situations is a gradual process that takes place over time, freeing you from the hold of BDD and leading to improved functioning and a more satisfying life.
Are you searching for a genuine, deep healing experience on your path to wholeness that combines modern and traditional methods?

Trauma can include any experience overwhelming to the nervous system. I work with my clients to create an environment built on trust, safety, compassion, and positive regard in order to develop the capacity to expand empathy, resilience, and self-confidence. Many clients find it helpful to anchor our work in the present moment using mindfulness breathing. I am well-trained in a diverse and integrated set of strategies including EMDR, emotionally-focused psychodynamic processing, CBT, DBT, group therapy, Jungian dream analysis, mindfulness, and relational techniques. Finally, I employ advanced harm reduction skills to treat substance misuse including advanced motivational interviewing skills. Complimenting you on your natural strengths even in the midst of life’s challenges is crucial to fostering hope.
