“I work hard to ensure that my clients feel safe and empowered to express themselves and their needs authentically, creating an ideal environment for reflection and sustainable change.”

My experience on the other side of the “couch” has afforded me the opportunity to see that real change is possible when we recognize that we deserve to ask for help. Seeking support through therapy is an invaluable experience, and it’s an honor and a privilege to be a part of the process.

My therapeutic style is interactive, warm, and compassionate. I bring together psychodynamic psychotherapy with my training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), presenting opportunities to reflect and identify underlying issues, while also offering skills and tools to use in moments of great distress.

I specialize in the treatment of Eating Disorders, and use a Health at Every Size (HAES) approach to treatment and can offer resources and support in creating a positive environment for those struggling with their relationships with food and body image. I work with individuals with a variety of eating disorders across the lifespan, as well as its impact on the family.

I am also especially passionate about working with teens, and understand how as a parent it can be scary and confusing to watch your child struggle. With my extensive experience working with families and teens, I take a collaborative, systemic, and strengths-based approach to care.

I also work with clients with ADHD, anxiety, depression and grief. My goal is to help you identify places you are stuck and create change. Together, I will help you feel more confident and make choices that lead to a more fulfilling life.

The relationship between you and your therapist is essential in the therapeutic process. I take great pride in providing a space for collaboration, working with my clients to create individual treatment plans that best support them in meeting their own therapeutic goals. I work hard to ensure that my clients feel safe and empowered to express themselves and their needs authentically, creating an ideal environment for reflection and sustainable change.

Kind Words From Real Patients

“No practice has helped me the way Therapy for Women has.”

“I have been to many therapists for trauma work but no practice has helped me the way Therapy for Women has. This practice is based on mutual trust. Your therapist will happily share bits of their own life experiences. This always makes me feel less alone in what I am experiencing and make sessions feel so comfortable. I really think this practice is something special and I am SO happy I found it when I did.”

“Therapy for Women empowers clients to see change in themselves.

“Therapy for Women offers a fresh and modern approach to therapy which involves empowering clients to see change in themselves. They give you tools to supplement what’s talked about in session so you can go home and practice life skills. This step has been so crucial for my long-term recovery and emotional stability. The therapists genuinely care for each client. No matter why you go to Therapy for Women, these women WILL change your life. I really can’t thank them enough.”

“Therapy for Women has saved my life and then stuck with me to help me rebuild it from the bottom up.”

“In addition to individual therapy, I'm in a weekly group. I've created wonderful friendships here. It's also functioned as a safe space for me to experiment with things like stating my needs, getting vulnerable, setting boundaries, and receiving feedback from a non-therapist. Therapy for Women has saved my life and then stuck with me to help me rebuild it from the bottom up.”

“They just genuinely care about their patients.”

"I found this center when I needed it most in life. They matched me with a few therapists and first time was a charm. The center itself is very quick to act if you need anything. I see a psychiatrist within the practice as well and he too is amazing. They just genuinely care about their patients. You don’t feel like a time slot to them."

“…the very first therapist they hooked me up with was my perfect match.”

"Finding the right therapist is the hardest journey when you are already at your worst. I've tried multiple and none were working for me. But then I was told about Therapy for Women Center and the very first therapist they hooked me up with was my perfect match. We've been together coming on 2 years and she has really been amazing."

“The office has a soothing atmosphere, you immediately feel comfortable and at ease.”

"Happy to have found Therapy for Women Center. I can feel a change in my thinking and lifestyle and it is a huge difference from a year ago. So grateful! The office has a soothing atmosphere, you immediately feel comfortable and at ease."
