Better Balance

In our relationships with ourselves or others, we all have times where the weight of life can make us feel off balance... In my practice my goal is to take the client from where they are and explore individualized solutions that restore a sense of alignment. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who uses an integrative approach, drawing from Solution Focused Brief (SFBT), Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Mindfulness-Based (MBCT), and Trauma Focused therapies.

I became a clinician because of my passion for using communication as a survival kit. As a therapist it’s all about being present and taking the client from where they are in that moment. I find it a privilege to have clients settle into my office as a safe space where they can release their stress and pain, and hold their challenges. I see my role as a mediator; delicately decoding language and behavior patterns. I believe that early, proactive intervention can dramatically improve lives. 

I work with adolescents, college students. young adults, individuals, families and couples. I have extensive experience in collaborating with referring pediatricians, child study teams, teachers, school counselors, professors, and mediators. I specialize in severe anxiety, panic attacks, ADD, and grief work.
