My clients come to me for help regulating their emotions more effectively. We evaluate which particular factors- early developmental/family experiences, ongoing thought/behavior patterns, emergent life changes- are contributing to their individual situation, so that we can develop a personalized plan for therapy. With greater insight and skill, clients can experience greater resiliency to cope with life's transitions, whether it be becoming a parent, adjusting to life at college, or coping with other important changes. Most frequently, it is clients who are suffering from anxiety and/or depression who seek my help. I have a particular interest in helping women suffering from perinatal mood disorders, and will gladly collaborate with other health care providers. Additionally, I specialize in helping late adolescents/young adults navigate the process of launching into adulthood.
