Individual Therapy

I offer individual therapy to teens and adults experiencing a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, life stress, grief, trauma, and disordered eating. I view therapy as a collaborative process, one in which we are both actively engaged. Together, we will create a treatment plan that is tailored to your specific goals and implements evidence-based strategies.

Parenting can be both highly rewarding and incredibly challenging. I work with parents who are interested in gaining a better understanding of themselves, the parent-child relationship, and learning skills they can implement to improve their relationship with their child. A large part of our work together is cultivating curiosity and compassion for both parent and child, as well as implementing evidence-based strategies to increase connection and decrease conflict.
