As I often tell my client’s, you are the expert on you! This being the case, I would love to support you in your process of self-exploration and personal improvement. My highest priority is to make your therapeutic experience a positive one, by acting as guide on your path toward healthier functioning and happier living. Let’s work together in creating the right plan for you to overcome any obstacles standing in your way. It may seem overwhelming, but it is possible!

My specialties are in treating: depression, anxiety, OCD, and trauma; addiction recovery, inclusive of pornography; grief and bereavement; life transitions; intellectual and emotional mental illness; LGBTQ, and interpersonal relationships including functional communication and healthy boundaries within couple, marital, and familial relationships.

My specific research-based training includes: acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, emotion-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, Gottman method, behavior analysis, and an interdisciplinary approach to addiction recovery.
