Do you have a chronic illness and struggle with the physical and emotional challenges it brings? I understand firsthand how chronic illness can cause health anxiety, stress, and difficult emotions. I provide therapy and practical strategies to help clients cope with conditions like Crohn’s disease, Type 1 Diabetes, Celiac disease, and IBS, supporting them in developing a more empowered and balanced approach to their health.

Anxiety Disorders

I offer counseling for anxiety disorders such as social anxiety, health anxiety, and generalized anxiety disorder. If you consider yourself an overthinker or tend to find yourself ruminating, I can help you develop healthy coping strategies to manage your anxiety and lead you toward  meaningful life.

Perfectionism

Do you hold yourself to unrealistic standards and then beat yourself up if you don't live up to those expectations? Do you tend to think in the black and white (I'm either a success or failure)? I work with individuals to cultivate self-compassion and understand the underlying function of their perfectionism.

Trauma and PTSD

I use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for individuals suffering from trauma and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). CPT is an evidence-based approach that treats PTSD. I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment  to explore the traumatic experience and its lingering effects.
