About Me
Finding the right therapist is an essential part of having a positive experience in therapy. To me, therapy is active and collaborative -- we will work together to create a supportive and comfortable space where you can pursue goals that are important to you.
More About My Practice
In my practice, I am passionate about working with individuals who wish to effectively cope with transitions, improve their relationships, manage difficult life situations, better understand themselves, and increase their overall emotional well-being.
My approach to therapy is integrative. I draw upon cognitive-behavioral (CBT), interpersonal, psychodynamic, multicultural, and dialectical-behavioral (DBT) perspectives to guide treatment. The foundation of my therapy work is helping clients explore the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are the underpinnings of their distress. I tailor my interventions to fit the particular needs of each individual I treat. Change happens through gaining insight, learning effective coping skills, modifying unhelpful ways of thinking, and taking active steps to cultivate more satisfying relationships with others.
My Specialties
I specialize in working with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, interpersonal and relationship challenges, adjustment concerns, and difficulties coping with transition. Additionally, I have extensive training and experience in working with undergraduate and graduate students. I often see high-achieving college students, young adults, and professionals who find that their happiness is hampered in some way.
