Accepting new clients now- both in-person and telehealth available. Welcome! Growth and change as a human being is not a linear path and that can be incredibly frustrating. I am deeply committed to helping individuals navigate through the ups and downs of life's fluctuations. Together we can look at thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to gauge what is currently working and where we can develop some new skills. We cannot heal anxiety and depression- they are part of the human experience, but that does not mean we can't change our relationship to them.
Mindfulness is at the heart of my therapeutic approach. By cultivating present-moment awareness and acceptance, we can explore your thoughts, emotions, and sensations with curiosity and kindness. We will strive to understand what is important to you and use that insight as our compass to guide the direction of our work together.
Get in Touch: If you're ready to take steps toward the non-linearity of healing, I invite you to reach out and schedule a free consultation. Remember that with patience, perseverance, and support- change is possible. I look forward to walking alongside you on the path towards clear direction, well-being, and fulfillment.

Acceptance and Commitment is my primary treatment type, but I am not shy about sprinkling in interventions from other therapy types as well. The experience will focus on clarifying personal values and goals, and utilizing cognitive skills to mindfully ground ourselves in moments of distress.
