Hello there! I've been a Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) for 15 years, with experience treating adults who are struggling to achieve their goals because of anxiety, depression, or difficulty relating to and communicating with others. If you're experiencing self-critical thoughts or fears that prevent you from moving forward, struggling to get motivated to do those tasks that you need or want to do, or can't seem to build or maintain connections, I'm here to help! I strive to offer a space that is validating and supportive, where you can learn the skills to challenge these barriers and take steps towards living a meaningful life.

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

Together, we'll identify the challenges that have prevented you from achieving your goals. We'll use your strengths and values to identify a path forward, learning skills to manage distressing thoughts or feelings and identifying specific steps towards living a meaningful life.

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

I have over 15 years of experience in evidence-based practices for managing anxiety, depression, anger management, insomnia, and grief. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental, and validating space, in which my clients can openly address concerns and navigate challenges to achieve their goals.

My treatment methods

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

I've found ACT to be a great approach to helping clients who are feeling stuck make progress towards their goals. The ACT model helps us identify our values and take steps towards living a meaningful life.

Attachment-based

I often use Attachment Theory to help clients understand how we learn to connect with others and how to build secure and loving relationships.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use CBT as a framework for clients to identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts. Understanding the connection between our thoughts, feelings, and behavior is a powerful tool in learning to change maladaptive behavior.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-i)

Sleep is so imperative to our physical and emotional well-being. I use CBT-I to help individuals suffering from insomnia learn healthy sleep practices and improve the quantity and, more importantly, the quality of their sleep.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I've found that DBT skills can be so helpful for anyone, particularly in learning how to manage distressing emotions, communicate effectively, and resolve conflict.
