Despite our best efforts to change, obstacles can be terribly difficult to overcome in isolation. My therapeutic approach is warm, empathic, supportive, curious, and honest. I am dedicated to creating a safe and secure space in which we can explore the thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relational patterns that may be causing you to feel stuck. Here’s the good news: if you are struggling, it is likely that your symptoms are highly treatable.
I work with young adults on the various worries/challenges that can arise when transitioning into adulthood, including creating healthy romantic and peer relationships, navigating college and early career development, cultivating important assertiveness skills, and working though complicated family dynamics. I have extensive experience working with adolescents and young adults on gender, sexual, and romantic identity development, and welcome individuals from the LGBTQQIA+ community.
I also work closely with the running community and I am dedicated to helping my clients find the right balance of optimal performance coupled with maintaining emotional and physical well-being. We will work together to cultivate tangible mindset tools that target motivation, training, injury, and recovery.
Finally, I work with adolescents and parents. I am committed to helping you better understand the thoughts and emotions underlying your child's behavior, and the ways in which you can foster their resiliency, self-compassion, academic success, and overall healthy emotional development.
