Great to meet you!

I specialize in anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, along with trauma and grief work. I have been in private practice for 16 years, and have masters degrees in social work and education.

My approach to therapy

Are you at a change point and experiencing obstacles to fully inhabiting your life? These may include depression anxiety, phobias, loss, grief, trauma and relationship issues. My work is relationship based, coming from a place of respect, and focusing on strengths. I believe in client-driven work that is meaningful and moves toward a place of hope and action. My work is informed by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

What you can expect from me

I work with clients to identify how they feel stuck in behaviors, emotions or cognitions, and develop a path toward the life that is of value to them.
