Great to meet you!

IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY FOR NEW CLIENTS. In my practice, I help people get better at managing their reactions to life's inevitable stressors. My specialties include managing anxiety and OCD, working with later life or adult AUTISM diagnosis, walking through challenging transitions, and working on skills that improve accountability to self. I enjoy working with a diverse clientele. I am LGBTQ+ affirming as well as affirming of neurodiversity.

My approach to therapy

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions. During sessions, I'll help you learn how to get curious and question your thoughts to change your feelings for the better. I will also use Emotional Focusing to help you identify and name emotions as they occur. Getting good at this is like having a new super power.

What you can expect from me

I work with clients who are struggling with anxiety and other stressful feelings. During our initial sessions, we will deep dive into what you see as the main problems and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them. Working in a safe, non-judgmental space, you will learn new skills and see a lifting of symptoms. I will regularly ask for your feedback to keep us on track.
