Practice Owner, Licensed Mental Health Counselor
OCD, social anxiety disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, body-focused repetitive behaviors (skin picking, hair pulling), and related symptoms such as depression, anger, avoidance, and distorted thinking. I also work with anxiety that arises during major life transitions, including changes in family, career, or other personal roles.
Friendly, warm, and validating. I take an integrated, person-centered approach that honors each client's unique experiences and perspective. My work is relational and dynamic, blending empathy, collaboration, and attunement with evidence-based practices to support growth and healing.
I am trained in Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP), Comprehensive DBT, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD.
Sessions explore past experiences, while building skills for the present — strengthening coping skills, creating new habits, improving self-talk, increasing values-based activities, and enhancing relationships. I also support anxiety that arises during life transitions, including periods such as pregnancy or early parenthood.
My goal is to meet clients where they're at while empowering them to be vulnerable, self-directed, and resilient.
I work with adults navigating significant life changes, stress, and emotional challenges, including new parents, career transitions, and other periods of adjustment.
