The decision to seek help can feel like an intimidating process. My goal is to provide collaborative, thoughtful and individualized therapy services to people of all ages in a comfortable, validating environment. We will collaborate together to develop a treatment best suited towards your needs. I use evidence-based practices grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy that may include techniques such as exposure with response prevention (inside and outside the office), mindfulness meditation and relaxation techniques, understanding and working to change helpful and unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, and behavior management training for parents. I often collaborate with other professionals and schools and am easily accessible through phone or email.
