I integrate mindfulness as well as other scientifically backed psychotherapy approaches into my clinical work to help my clients feel calmer and more satisfied and more centered in their lives. I can help you to feel more comfortable and at ease in your body and mind and find new and healthier ways to deal with stress and difficult feelings.
My approach is active, collaborative, and results driven.

I recognize that there is not a one size fits all treatment method and I customize my approach to fit each client's needs.
