LCSW-R
Let's find your balance
I believe that our struggles are incredible opportunities for growth and change. It’s an honor for me to walk beside you through your current challenge; whether that is depression, anxiety, anger, grief, relationship issues or a life transition. I specialize in relaxation and stress management techniques so that you can feel better, have improved relationships and find joy and purpose in your daily life.
GETTING STARTED WITH THERAPY
Are we a good fit?
Most people think about counseling for a long time before they start searching for a therapist. I know there is usually something - some crisis or difficulty - that pushed you to this moment of action.
While you may feel a sense of urgency, I want to make sure we are a good fit before we get started.
I am a pragmatic therapist – I like to start with a solution-focused approach to help you feel better as soon as possible. As we get to know each other, I may apply other important approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral-based skilled. If needed or if you desire, we can dive deeper into family systems and psychodynamic work. At every step, we are partners.
When you reach out, there are many things I consider before taking a new client. This may include things like our schedules, your insurance, or whether I think I can help you. Sometimes, it's none of the above, and my practice is just too full for new clients. In that case, I try to provide referrals.
Please know that I make every decision with care, because I know that when a person is ready for therapy - it's important to get the right fit!

COVID Safety & Telehealth Options
Our mutual health is important.
I am fully vaccinated, and seeing clients in my office. The decision to mask during a session is based on a variety of factors including your vaccine status, medical concerns, recent travel and/or social contacts. Either of us can request masking at any time. Other office safety protocols will be reviewed before your first session. We are asking people to mask in the common areas, such as the waiting room and hallway.
You may also opt for telehealth sessions through my HIPPA compliant patient portal. This is a safe and convenient way for us to meet! Sessions can be easily changed to telehealth if you are feeling sick or have had a recent exposure to COVID. Please request a telehealth appointment if you are feeling ill.
