I have experience in working with depression, anxiety, life transitions, and school stress. I spent more than two years working at Cornell's Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS), which provided me with deep knowledge of the ins and outs of their mental health system, along with the pressures that one can face at college in regard to competition, academic stress, and building social connection. Being from upstate NY, I also understand some of the isolative parts of the experience, and adj...

College can be one of the most exciting times in your life: but it can also bring a lot of pressure. Between classes, deadlines, part time jobs, and planning for the future, it is easy to feel overwhelmed.

I’m a provider with extensive experience treating adults 18+ across a wide range of mental health...

Nancy McWilliams once wrote, “Not getting it right, making mistakes, and wishing we had the courage to do it differently is not an indication of an underlying pathology or disease. It is the human condition.” This is a belief I hold at the heart of my therapeutic work. I see therapy as a space where all emotions and new interpersonal experiences are allowed to unfold—where people can start to free themselves from the weight of their past and the grip of their fixed narratives and complex feeling...

I am particularly well-suited for college students, as I ran a research team with students for more than ten years and won the top mentoring awards at both of the universities where I was a professor. As a former professor, I do have a unique understanding of young adults and their needs. The clients who fit best with me tend to be bright and intuitive and perhaps even “overthinkers” who I often teach to think less, ironically! :) My clients come to me for a number of reasons, but one co...
