Great to meet you!

I am an LCSW with over 10 years of experience working with adolescents, young adults and adults. I use evidence based treatments to help address anxiety, sadness, stress, transitions, relationship challenges, unwanted behaviors and the rest of what life throws at us!

My approach to therapy

Everyone is unique, and so my approach is a tapestry, using the most effective aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, motivational interviewing, exposure response prevention, dialectical behavioral therapy and more to find what brings out the best in each person I work with.

What you can expect from me

I want our time together to feel like a warm, ongoing conversation where you can express yourself fully with no judgement, be vulnerable and feel empowered to try new things, fail, succeed and improve your overall quality of your life.
