About
I work with adults, teens, and kids who struggle to express themselves effectively, navigate challenges in relationships, and heal from difficult past experiences. I often see adults who are feeling overwhelmed or frustrated after trying to manage symptoms of anxiety, ADHD, trauma, or depression on their own. Many of the teens and kids that I see feel a lot of pressure to perform better in school, have difficulties around interacting with their parents or peers, or struggle to motivate themselves without relying on self-criticism. My clients often want skills and strategies so we spend time discussing and practicing them together. My therapeutic approach is integrative with an emphasis on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). I often use techniques and teach skills that promote behavior change, mindfulness, and acceptance to help people focus on what matters to them and be less judgmental of themselves. I will work with you to figure out what you need to make the changes that you want.
