Specialties

I specialize in psychotherapy with adults who are too hard on themselves, especially parents. Areas of specialization include depression, anxiety, obsessive-​compulsive disorder, parenting, chronic pain, and life transitions. I have expertise and experience with postpartum depression/​anxiety, parenting stress and ambivalence about parenthood.

My style is warm, authentic and nonjudgmental, and I work collaboratively with my clients. Using insight-​oriented psychotherapy and mindfulness techniques, I will help you find a way to stop feeling stuck and move forward.
