I am a licensed clinical social worker, helping adults who experience depression, anxiety, and other painful feelings associated with life transitions, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, past trauma, sexual assault, work-related issues, and stalled creativity. My work is collaborative--I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where we can explore your concerns freely. To find a therapist who's right for you, I offer a free half-hour consultation so that you can meet me and address your emotional and financial needs. If you feel that the match is not good, there is no obligation. Email me for a quick reply. My approach is psychodynamic -- focused on relationship and emotional attachment. Our work together is aimed at helping you to resolve the issues underlying your emotional pain; it is a course of treatment that often leads to greater self understanding and confidence. I enjoy treating adults of all ages and backgrounds. If you are ready to make positive changes in your life, resolve past trauma, and deepen your relationships, please reach out. In particular, I've taught in academia and work well with higher-education faculty and those who are artistically inclined. Further, I specialize in helping young adults and college students move forward with their lives.
