Hello! A little about me and my background.  I am a  Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with expertise in perinatal mood disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, relational issues and eating disorders.  I take an interpersonal approach and utilize multiple strategies to support clients wherever they are in their journey.  I am committed to forming nonjudgmental and trusting relationships so that clients are better able to understand themselves.  By deepening our understanding of ourselves we are more able to make more meaningful life decisions, develop self-awareness and emotional balance to live life to the fullest.

I have a broad range of experience and expertise in providing psychotherapy to adults and adolescents with a range of issues including: perinatal mood disorders, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction and relationship difficulties.  I also have a special interest and experience in treating healthcare professionals.  I approach clients with warmth and humor.  I have a gentle, yet direct approach as we explore your thoughts, feelings and underlying beliefs and move towards the life you want.  I am available by phone or email for a free consultation.  I am open and honest and am happy to provide you with a referral if it feels as if I am not a match for your needs! 

Professional Training:

I have training in many modes of psychotherapy-  Cognitive Behavioral Therapy(CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy(DBT) and Interpersonal Psychotherapy(IPT), Post-Inductuon Therapy(formally knows as co-dependence), Relational Life Therapy (Level 1 and 2) and Mindfulness.  All modalities are helpful in dealing with the symptoms of depression, anxiety and relational difficulties.  I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing(EMDR), which is used to treat a variety of trauma.  

I am an out of network provider with all insurance companies as of January 1, 2024. I am happy to provide you a receipt to submit for reimbursement from your insurance company. Please contact me directly if you have questions about insurance coverage.
