Greetings! I am a licensed Psychologist, helping adults, teens and children ages 7 and older come up with ways of looking at the world and each other that help them feel better about life. During the first few sessions we will discuss what has been bothering you (or your teenager) and work together to create a plan and choose the best approach. I have experience using interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness and Family Therapy. Each of these interventions takes a slightly different approach to supporting you in addressing thoughts, feelings and behaviors that can relieve anxiety, depression or overwhelming emotion. I grew up as a competitive athlete and have coached swimming at the high school level for 7 years. I have a special place in my heart for working with athletes on issues related to athletic performance, such as anxiety and motivation.
