Introduction

My goal is to provide caring, affirming support to clients as they navigate challenges. These may include stress management, anger management, communication skills, work-related issues, challenges with family dynamics, mild/moderate OCD, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and other concerns. In general, I choose not to work with addiction or eating disorders. I have a thoughtful, very direct communication style. My general approach focuses on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and solution-focused counseling. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which can be extremely helpful for survivors of trauma as well as people struggling with high anxiety and other challenges. My dog, Harper, comes to work with me most days. Harper is a very calm dog whose primary skill is snuggling under a blanket. She often enjoys sleeping next to a client on the office sofa, and there are comfortable chairs available if you prefer to not be next to her. I also offer clinical supervision services to pre-licensed and associate-level clinicians pursuing their LICSW or LPCC (I am approved with both boards). I also offer leadership consultation and coaching to both individuals and organizations.
