I'm a seasoned therapist with an established history of working with children, adolescents & young adults. I possess clinical expertise in eating disorders, anxiety, depression, trauma & other co-occurring disorders & I specialize in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) designed to reduce symptoms of trauma & PTSD. In addition to my clinical training I have been extensively trained in the use of yoga & mindfulness as a complimentary intervention. I recognize the strong connection between mind & body & work to help clients develop practices that enhance their overall wellness. My therapeutic approach is grounded in the belief that an effective therapist builds good relationships, built on mutual respect & trust. This sets the tone for the work & allows the client to feel safe enough to be vulnerable. I work with clients to develop insight into the function of their presenting problem without shame or judgement, allowing them to find alternative ways to get their needs met. I believe in taking a multidimensional approach to treatment & work collaboratively with allied professionals to ensure each patient is getting the most comprehensive care possible. I whole heartedly believe recovery from whatever you are struggling with is possible & aim to impart that hope to my clients. My approach is warm, open & non-judgmental.

How do you find the right therapist? Education and training is important, but at least as important is finding a therapist with whom you can truly be yourself. I've been told by my patients that the reasons they value therapy with me are that I'm easy to talk to, I really listen, and I'm interactive. They say I "get" them, which helps to develop trust and safety. It can be difficult to talk about your personal struggles with someone you don't know. My warm, calm and non-judgmental nature makes it a little bit easier. I have 30 years of experience, deep empathy and a sense of humor. Much of therapy involves relationship issues of one kind or another: single people wanting to be in relationships, individuals and couples (gay and straight) wanting better relationships, people struggling with and healing from difficult family relationships. I have studied attachment-based therapy for many years with nationwide experts. I've worked for many years with patients with cancer, HIV/AIDS, and other medical illnesses. I have worked extensively with trauma, grief/bereavement and also weight and body image issues. I enjoy helping people find different paths to health and wellness. I am a longtime student of yoga, meditation and Ayurveda. I look forward to hearing from you.

Ready to talk about it? Let's start therapy together! I work with children, adolescents, and adults all across the gender spectrum and in the LGBTQIA+ community. I provide education to families, discuss concerns related to gender and sexuality, and review the co-occuring mental health issues that sometimes accompany different gender identities. For trans individuals, the world of puberty blockers, hormone replacement therapy, gender-affirming surgeries, and changing name markers can be overwhelming—I'm here to help with that, too. I’m happy to write gender-affirming letters for procedures or institutions. My style is warm, strengths-based, and empowering. You will not be laying on a sofa (unless you really want to!). We are equals in our relationship: I won’t pretend to be an expert on your life, but I am a partner in your growth. Sessions will feel like conversations with a friend. Sometimes we’ll cry but I'll make that we laugh, too. I'm excited to get started in our work together! Reach out for a phone consultation.

*NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* Choosing to make time to work on yourself can be a difficult, but invaluable decision. Seeing a counselor can provide the assistance necessary to cope with everything from everyday life stressors to a major life crisis. By using an eclectic and collaborative approach, I am confident that I will be able to help you develop the skills needed to fulfill the goals you have for yourself and your well-being. I have been able to help individuals struggling with low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, co-occuring disorders, grief, relationship difficulties, and substance abuse. I also have experience helping women navigate the prenatal and postnatal periods, as well as the difficulties of being a parent. Change can be difficult, but it is possible. You do not have to suffer in silence and wonder if things will eventually get better. Asking for help is the first step.
