My approach to therapy and assessment:

As a clinician, I am committed to delivering scientifically supported therapeutic interventions and cognitive, mood, and personality assessments. Although I draw from a wide range of approaches, I generally conceptualize cases from a cognitive behavioral orientation. My aim is to build a trusting mutually respectful therapeutic relationship in which agreed upon, achievable treatment goals are identified and pursued.

Working collaboratively, I help my clients to identify behaviors that leave them stuck in unwanted and unhelpful patterns and to develop behaviors that empower them to engage in life in a more satisfying way. My goal is to meet my clients where they are and foster a supportive, non-judgmental environment for them to begin to work toward what matters to them and achieve an improved sense of well-being.
