Collaborative care, customized for you
I strive to provide my clients with a collaborative and culturally sensitive approach to therapy, tailoring effective treatments to the individual needs of those I work with. I see individuals who are struggling with a number of different symptoms and life situations, including history of trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, loss, difficulty coping, sleep disturbance, and life transitions. I look forward to working with you to develop an individualized treatment plan to help you reach your therapy goals.
I have extensive experience working with trauma survivors, and have received specialty training in treatments for post-traumatic stress disorder (ACT, PE, CPT), and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (E/RP). I also have specialized experience in working with individuals adjusting to and coping with challenging medical diagnoses and/or chronic medical conditions.
For those experiencing sleep challenges, I offer a specialized program in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-i).
I am queer affirming and provide gender affirming care, including gender affirming care letters at no additional cost. No cost sessions are provided when available to support those interested in gender affirming care letters.
Please contact me with questions or to schedule an initial no-cost consultation appointment.
