Great to meet you!

I strive to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment to help clients heal and participate more deeply in relationships and in life.


I obtained a master’s and doctoral degree in psychology and have worked in residential treatment centers, group practices, and most recently private practice.

My approach to therapy

I work from an interpersonal/relational perspective and utilize cognitive behavioral and behavioral techniques when appropriate. I help clients get in touch with and process difficult emotions to feel more empowered and create more meaningful relationships in life -- with family, friends, work, food, and themselves.

What you can expect from me

I work with clients at various stages of life who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relational difficulties, family of origin issues, grief and loss, complications surrounding pregnancy/childbirtth from an interpersonal/relational perspective.


Goals are to feel less overwhelmed with life and to participate more deeply in relationships. I strive to help clients better cope with anxiety/depression that can feel paralyzing at times.
