Treatment areas:  


  • ​Anxiety Disorders: Do you experience a lot of anxiety in social situations?  Do you worry a lot? Do you have intrusive, unwanted thoughts? I can help you learn how to approach the things you worry about while gaining confidence in your ability to solve problems and live a fulfilling life.
  • Emotion Management:  Do experience intense emotions that you feel like come out of nowhere?  Do you feel like you don't respond to them well?  Do your intense emotions stick around for a long time and it's hard to just keep doing what you want to do?  I can teach you specific behavioral skills to feel like you got this!
  • Depression: Do you find yourself not taking care of yourself, or feeling sad more often than not?  This is a painful place to be.  There are skillful ways to engage with life again and find meaning to move forward.
  • SPACE: Are you a parent of an anxious teen or adult and want to do your part in changing how they manage their anxiety?  I have specific training to help parents in this area, whether your kid wants to be involved or not!  I have additional training for parents of kids with ARFID, and for parents of young adults that are considered "failure to launch".
  • Grief and loss: We all have changes in our lives that that would benefit from some coaching or skills on how to navigate them better, whether it be from relationship loss, job loss, or any significant change in our lives.
  • Stress management: Life is hard!  Do you always feel like you are reacting poorly?  Do you feel behind on what you need to get done?  Let's work together to help you approach life more effectively. 
  • Interpersonal skills: ​Are you wishing you had better relationships with friends and/or family?  Do you find yourself doing more damage than good when saying no to others, or asking for something?  Do you have a hard time saying no?  I can teach specific skills to help you navigate these areas while validating how hard relationships can be.
