I believe healing begins in a space where you feel truly heard. I offer a warm, supportive environment where you can explore your inner thoughts and emotions completely free of judgment. Navigating challenges like depression, anxiety, grief, or relationship difficulties can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to carry them alone. Together, we will work through these struggles at your pace, helping you find clarity, resilience, and a clearer path forward.
I believe connection is key to our well-being and I use a relational approach to uncover patterns in my clients' relationships with themselves and others. I specialize in providing healing treatment for trauma or just big life adjustments.
As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), my approach is centered on building a collaborative partnership with clients, actively listening to their needs and concerns to develop a tailored plan that empowers them to achieve their goals. My style is warm, supportive, and detailed assessment to reach a correct diagnosis in treating patients. .
I previously practiced law for 17 years prior to going back to school to become a therapist after witnessing the 9/11 attacks from my office window. Most recently, I worked in a group psychotherapy practice prior to starting my own private practice where I provided therapy to adolescents (and their families) and adults who struggled with, among other things, depression and anxiety, using a variety of therapeutic techniques and approaches in order to tailor treatment to fit each client’s needs.
Helping You Navigate Change with Clarity and Confidence
Are you facing a major life transition and feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain? Whether you're starting college, navigating divorce, entering retirement, or working toward recovery from substance use, I offer a safe and collaborative space to help you move forward with clarity and confidence. My approach is grounded in DBT and tailored to your unique goals, so you can build resilience and become the best version of yourself.
