Introduction

I bring a warm, supportive, and down-to-earth approach to therapy, with a dash of humor and creativity. My approach is to collaborate with you on developing skills and strategies to cope more effectively, as well as understand underlying patterns and past events that contribute to your current situation. We all struggle to see our strengths, at times, and therapy is a place to embrace those strengths and utilize them to balance out the unique challenges we face. I work with adults and teens age 15+. Some of the areas I specialize in are anxiety, OCD, mild ASD, ADHD, adjustment to life events and transitions, parent guidance, stress management, and interpersonal relationship problems. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with relational and developmental approaches. We all need support, and giving yourself uninterrupted time to completely focus on yourself, I believe, is of great value. Sometimes it helps to stop and examine your own needs and priorities. Doing so with a therapist who is caring, objective, experienced, and trained on evidence-based techniques for overcoming challenges can be of great benefit.
