About
Have you been so worried or stressed lately that your thoughts are racing? Are you finding it difficult to relax and let go of your worries? Are you experiencing worries about what others think of you or procrastination with getting started? If you are coping with anxiety related to social concerns, generalized worries (worries about a lot of different areas), low mood, stress, academic concerns, or life transitions, I invite you to look at my website and reach out to see if we could be a good fit.I treat anxiety and related concerns using evidence-based interventions, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and SPACE. I specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of anxiety and related concerns across the lifespan, including children, teens, and adults. In addition to working with individuals with anxiety, my work also includes the use of parenting programs (PMT) for youth with disruptive and oppositional behaviors. I have been extensively trained in CBT for youth & adults. When working with clients, I take a collaborative and empathic approach to therapy, joining with clients to work towards their stated goals. I use a strengths-based model, relying primarily on CBT for working with individuals around symptoms of anxiety, depression, & related concerns. You may have questions about how to start, so I invite you to reach out!
