Hello! I'll get right to the point - these are the main issues I specialize in: 1. TRAUMA/PTSD. This includes all types of trauma (physical, sexual, emotional, psychological) and residual trauma symptoms (OCD, anxiety, depression). 2. SELF and RELATIONSHIP ISSUES, including: a. CODEPENDENCY (i.e. people pleasing, inability to say no, fear of upsetting others, lack of assertiveness, chronic feelings of obligation). b. PSYCHOLOGICAL ABUSE (manipulative friends, family, romantic partners, controlling relationships, cults, abusive churches, workplace bullying, hazing, sexual coercion, undue influence, toxic people of all kinds). c. IDENTITY CONCERNS (poor boundaries, lack of purpose/identity, career and higher education concerns, narcissism, former cult members). 3. SLEEP ISSUES: I am a gigantic sleep nerd and I will teach you more about sleep than you probably want to know. I am trained in CBT-I, the gold standard for treating Insomnia. I work also work with Nightmare Management, CPAP Claustrophobia/Compliance, and I also interpret dreams. Do any of these describe you or your situation? If so, I'd love to meet you and talk about how we can work together to overcome your struggles. Feel free to browse through my profile and if you feel so inclined, make an appointment so we can work toward restoring balance to your world again. PLEASE NOTE: Individual adults only (18+). I do not work with minors or couples. Please be sure to complete the Intake Form before our first appointment. Failure to do so will require us to spend our first session completing it together.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Like physical therapy, the goal is to achieve "maximum medical improvement." Some symptoms are resolved completely (i.e. go into full remission). Others will never completely go away, but you will become more skilled in managing those symptoms with finesse. I am skills oriented and I use a teaching style to help you learn these skills so that you can practice them on your own. My goal is to get you to the point where you don't need me anymore. Most people spend approximately 3-6 months working with me and then "graduate." Some choose to continue working with me beyond this point on a less frequent basis (i.e. "tune-ups") to maintain any gains they have made.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Finding a therapist is like dating: There has to be chemistry! I want to be matched with the right person too, so I only list specialties in which I am both experienced and trained. If you see something listed on my profile, then I have both experience and training in that specialty. If you do not see it on my profile, then we are not a good match.
