Great to meet you!

I work best with clients who are troubled by depression, trauma, loss, relationship issues and life transitions. I provide therapy for adults of all ages. I use a variety of treatment techniques including cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and client-centered therapies. My research on coping with traumatic life events has prepared me well to work with clients who have experienced trauma and crisis. Life challenges can be debilitating at first, but can lead to a search for meaning and dramatic new growth. I enjoy accompanying clients in this process.

My approach to therapy

It is important to understand my client's life and challenges. I use therapy techniques to fit individual client needs with the goal of helping them move forward in positive ways.

What you can expect from me

In my first sessions, I work to understand your unique life experiences and what goals you would like to achieve through therapy.
