I believe that therapy work is greatly enhanced when you feel a strong connection with your therapist. When you know the person across the room "gets" you, it is a whole lot easier to make difficult changes. Building meaningful relationships with all of my clients is a top priority for me, and I provide a blend of support and challenge. I bring a sense of humor to my work while also leaving room for reflective conversation, and I strive to create a warm, collaborative, and transparent therapy relationship with each of my clients. I utilize an integrated approach that relies heavily on interpersonal process and other empirically-supported interventions. I believe two critical ingredients for change are: increasing self-awareness and creating opportunities to have a different experience. In order to be the most effective, I typically tailor my approach to each individual. My areas of expertise include: trauma, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, identity development, grief and loss, and relational difficulties. I also specialize in working people who identify as gay, lesbian, or bisexual and trans* identified individuals. I have unique experience in working with professionals in training and early career psychologists.
