I create a safe environment for clients to feel comfortable and safe to be able to open up and express their feelings and thoughts.

The clinical care I provide is offered in a warm, kind, accepting, and positive atmosphere. I focus and build on insights, attributes, and strengths clients already have in order to problem-solve and recover from mental health conditions and life stressors.

I work with couples and individuals, and specialize in relationship issues, coping with medical illnesses, grief and loss, health behavior and lifestyle changes, life stress and transitions (including marriage, separation and divorce, infertility, work stress, life stage concerns, etc), anxiety, depression, and ADHD. A supportive and non-judgmental relationship is crucial to any effective individual or couples therapy. In creating a safe place to explore and understand where you might feel stuck, I help you learn new ways to communicate and interact in relationships, cope with life stresses and losses, deal with difficult emotions, and shift behaviors and patterns that may no longer work in your life. I view each person or couple holistically, and provide individualized interventions integrating approaches that are supported by research in order to help you gain insights, learn new communication and coping skills, and ultimately make lasting changes in your life. I am certified in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) and have advanced training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy (GMT), as well extensive training in health psychology, behavioral medicine, bereavement counseling, child and pediatric psychology, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness based approaches, such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and insight meditation. I have also worked and published in the areas of women's health and ADHD.

My training as a mental health professional has taught me to be highly attuned to individuals' needs, with a strong desire to help my clients overcome life's difficulties. I know asking for help can be challenging, but I aim to build and maintain positive and effective therapeutic relationships built around the confidence and trust of my clients. In over a decade of experience, I have used a variety of approaches to meet my clients needs. I originally relied on cognitive-behavioral therapy, but I now use an eclectic approach, embracing psychoanalytic and existential approaches. I am also a licensed behavior specialist. I work with autism-spectrum clients to implement behavior programs that strengthen their skills and abilities. While in Europe, I gained expertise in progressive body relaxation.

Therapy should be a place where you can show up as your full, authentic self — not the polished version you think you're supposed to be. I'm not the distant, silent, smile-and-nod kind of therapist. Clients tell me they appreciate the validation and empathy I bring, and that I'm not afraid to be direct when it matters. You'll hear me curse once in a while. We'll laugh together, and we'll sit with the hard stuff, and I'll say the honest thing about what's keeping you stuck. At some point one of my dogs or ferrets will make a surprise appearance on screen. I can't ask you to be real with me if I'm not willing to be real with you. My work is grounded in relational and interpersonal approaches, which means the trust between us is central to the healing — not a preliminary to it. Our relationships, with ourselves and with the people and systems around us, tend to be where our deepest wounds come from and where growth actually happens. I'm also trauma-informed, holistic, and multicultural in how I work. I want to understand you in the context of your identity, your history, your culture, and your strengths — not just your symptoms. Depending on what you need, our work might include evidence-based trauma interventions, practical skills, psychoeducation, exploring relationship patterns, creative and expressive approaches, or body-focused techniques. No two people need the same thing, so I don't work from a formula. My job isn't to tell you who to become. It's to help you reconnect with who you already are. Your first consultation is free — a relaxed chance to tell me what's on your mind and ask me anything. Let's get you to more than surviving.

I treats both individuals and couples utilizing the latest in evidence-based practices. Specifically, I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, OCD, depression, anger, stress management, trauma, and sport-performance psychology. I am also well-versed in the psychological assessment of psychopathology, personality, intelligence, and other areas. I conduct evaluations for court, pre-surgery, immigration issues, emotional support animals, and other forensics. Most importantly, I am committed to helping my clients live meaningful, values-driven lives with peace.

Whether you and your partner are struggling due to a rupture in trust, a major life transition, or uncertainty about alignment in goals for the relationship, I help couples gain deeper clarity so they can make meaningful progress toward long-term, sustainable growth. My clients have done well for themselves in many aspects of their lives, but feel lost about how to address the frustration, disconnect, and overwhelm in their relationship that may have them repeating painful patterns. As a relationally focused therapist, I’ll help you develop better insight into those patterns, explore the underlying functions and needs driving these dynamics, and build new ways of relating that foster connection and shared meaning in your life together. You deserve expert-driven therapy that is relatable, effective, and affirming, and you’ll find it here. I offer a safe, supportive space for people of color and LGBTQ+ couples. I also offer a unique perspective and support for clients navigating long-distance relationships, decision-making around marriage andor parenthood, adoption, and protecting their own families from intergenerational patterns that have persisted in their family of origin. Finding the right therapist is so important to getting the most out of couples therapy. Reach out for a free 20-minute video consultation so we can determine whether I’m the right therapist for you. Let’s get started!

My clients describe me as warm, accepting and non-judgmental. I believe that finding the right therapist for you is an important part of having a positive experience in therapy. I work collaboratively with my clients with the goal of helping them better understand themselves and lead a more balanced and fulfilled life. I help my clients to think about their problems and relationship in new ways by offering support and feedback about behavioral and relationship patterns. While I do not offer direct advice, I am active and participatory in each session with my clients.
