About My Clients

While I am effective with a wide range of problems, I am taking clients that primarily want to address difficulties with anxiety. Often, when the issue is resolved, folks choose to stay and work on relational struggles and other issues. I work with adults of all ages and demographic factors.

My Background and Approach

While much of my formal training has been dedicated to cognitive behavioral therapy interventions, I am a relational therapist. Building trust and being able to reflect accurately is my primary skill set. I want to build a strong relationship with my clients in addition to using evidence-based interventions. This allows for continued work when clients want to address other difficulties, or realize that the problem they wanted therapy for has changed. I specialize with difficulties that I myself have experienced, like insomnia and panic attacks. I am familiar with these interventions because I utilized them for myself, in addition to my formal training in these areas. That being said, I work effectively with a wide array of problems that I may not have directly experienced.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that it is my privilege to witness the most difficult, joyful and confusing moments in many peoples' lives. In order to do this effectively, it is also my responsibility to understand the factors that our society has created to dis-empower people of many demographic groups. I work to understand what I can, and cultivate curiosity and awareness around what I can't understand through personal experience.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
