Areas of Expertise
Children, Teens and Young Adults
I specialize in helping teenagers and young adults navigate life's challenges. Whether it's anxiety, depression, or the difficulties of parental divorce, I am here to help. I am committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for my clients, and I work closely with each individual to tailor my services to their unique needs.
Life Transitions
Life is full of transitions, and sometimes, we need a little extra support to get through them. Whether starting college, moving to a new city, or adjusting to a significant life change, my evidence-based approach can help you develop the skills to navigate these transitions confidently.
Anxiety and Depression
Anxiety and depression are common mental health concerns that can have a significant impact on your quality of life. I offer psychotherapy services to help you manage your symptoms and improve your overall well-being. My approach is tailored to each individual's unique needs, and I am committed to helping you find the tools and strategies that work best for you.
Trauma (cPTSD/PTSD)
With a compassionate understanding of trauma's lasting impact, especially from childhood experiences, I bring my training as a Certified Trauma Specialist (CCTP) to help you heal. If you've been affected by events such as parental divorce or feelings that you are alone and have to do it all by yourself, know that it's never too late to seek support. Together, we'll gently explore and address these deep-rooted challenges, guiding you toward healing and resilience.
Approach
I embrace a holistic and integrative approach to therapy, underpinned by a deep understanding of trauma-informed care and attachment theory. I see symptoms as part of your internal system. My aim is to treat the whole person – your emotions, thoughts, experiences, and aspirations.
​
A Blend of Evidence-Based Practices
​
I employ a diverse array of proven therapeutic techniques to ensure the most effective treatment for each individual. This includes:
-
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT): For emotional regulation and resilience.
-
Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS): To understand and harmonize various aspects of the self.
-
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To transform negative thought patterns into empowering beliefs.
-
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): For fostering acceptance and mindfulness in everyday life.
Each of these methods offers unique benefits, and their integration allows for a more comprehensive and adaptable therapeutic experience.
​
Personalized Therapy Sessions
​
Understanding that each individual's path to healing is unique, I ensure that every therapy session is specifically tailored to your personal needs and goals. This collaborative and adaptive approach creates a supportive environment that not only facilitates healing but also empowers you to take active steps towards a more fulfilling life.
