About this pro
Whether you realize it or not, you have a story to tell.
Your unique experiences, thoughts and emotions shape the core of who you are. I believe that understanding this story and knowing how it led you to where you are today can dramatically improve your quality of life.
Individual therapy focuses specifically on you, your concerns, and your goals. I use a variety of evidenced-based techniques tailored to help you feel better quickly. While I strongly believe your past experiences influence your present behavior, we will spend most of our time together focused on the “here and now” to help you identify and implement the changes you want in your life.
You do not need to know your diagnosis to start therapy. You only need to know the current issues affecting your life. While I work with a variety of mental concerns, I specialize in working with anxiety, in all its various forms, and women who are either transitioning out of a relationship or want to create more meaning and joy in their lives.
Seeing my clients grow and lead the lives they want for themselves.

I also specialize in working with women who are looking for more joy and connection in their lives, as well as women who are exiting a relationship and need help making the transition to a new chapter in their lives.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
I think it is very helpful to have a general idea of the kinds of things you want to work on therapy and have a good understanding of what you hope to gain from the process. The most important factor in determinng a successful outcome in therapy is the relationship between you and your therapist. Be sure to ask lots of questions and make sure you feel comfortable with the therapist and see them as someone you can trust.
