My expertise is in working with anxiety, OCD, depression, and other difficulties, including life transitions, perfectionism, doubt/indecision, insomnia, and more. I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology from Yale University and specialize in evidence-based therapies (i.e., ACT, ERP, and mindfulness-based CBT). In addition to being the gold-standard anxiety treatments, these approaches provide valuable tools for anyone interested in enhancing well-being and personal growth. Together, we will explore new ways to respond to thoughts and feelings and make behavioral changes, with more flexibility, awareness, self-compassion, and purpose. The approaches I use are designed to help you (1) better respond to difficult thoughts and feelings so that they have less influence over you and your life, (2) increase awareness and connection to the present moment, and (3) take actions that move you toward what matters to you rather than engaging in behaviors that leave you feeling stuck or unfulfilled. Therapy is not one-size-fits-all: we will flexibly tailor our work to your individual needs and what you are hoping to get out of therapy. With compassion, openness, and curiosity, I aim to create a space where you can come as you are— with all thoughts and feelings welcome and allowed— as we help you move towards the goals that are most important to you.
