Great to meet you!

Are you struggling with anxiety, relationship challenges, or addiction? These are my primary areas of specialization. With 20 years of experience, I can help you understand what is keeping you stuck and work with you toward the change and relief you are seeking.

Many of my clients begin to notice improvement within the first few sessions, although each person’s experience is different. Therapy may be short- or long-term based on your circumstances, goals, and needs. Together, we will develop a treatment plan that works for you.

I also have experience helping clients with depression, mood disorders, couples and family concerns, major life transitions, grief, divorce, domestic violence, parenting, trauma, and changing relationships with adult children.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in helping individuals and couples with anxiety, addiction, and relationship or family concerns. I use an eclectic therapeutic approach tailored to each client’s needs, with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) at the center of my work.

As a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, I also provide informed and compassionate support for clients affected by trauma. Appointments are available seven days a week to accommodate a variety of scheduling needs.

What you can expect from me

My goal is to help you address the concerns and barriers that led you to seek therapy. Together, we will identify the outcomes that matter most to you and develop a path toward meaningful change.

I will listen without judgment, offer steady support, and be honest and direct when doing so can help you move forward. Throughout the process, we will work collaboratively toward the changes you want to create in your life.
