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

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

Among my areas of expertise are Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention, Yoga Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy for anxiety, depression and chronic pain.

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

I love to use humor and an "all hands on deck" approach to working through anxiety and OCD. I will never ask you to do an exposure that I won't do with you and you always have say in what your ERP journey looks like. I enjoy connecting to others and can balance empathy and care with knowing that I can help you get to a place of recovery.
