Great to meet you!

Is your mind constantly running through worst-case scenarios? I help clients find a healthier relationship with anxiety: one where it protects them when it matters, and steps back when it’s doing more harm than good. Anxiety is my primary specialization, including health anxiety (including illness anxiety disorder/hypochondria), social anxiety, pregnancy and post-partum anxiety, perfectionism, people pleasing, and obsessive tendencies. I also work extensively with people with concerns related to trauma, depression, grief, adoption, relationships, and parenting.

My approach to therapy

A session with me might include talking through your thoughts and feelings, identifying patterns together, exploring what’s underneath your reactions, and trying on new ways of looking at things. I love helping clients get to the heart of what’s really going on and walk away with new insights.

What you can expect from me

First session is heavily focused on information gathering so we can identify your goals and make plans on how to address them. Any future sessions will be focused on whatever is on your mind, using a cognitive approach to sort through your thoughts and feelings, helping you gain new insights and perspectives that align with your goals.
