What I do

I offer cognitive-behavioral, somatic, mind-body, mindfulness based, and neuro-cognitively informed treatment for adults. My specialty areas are the treatment of mood disorders and anxiety, the assessment and treatment of adults with ADD / ADHD, and support for college students affected by ADD/ADHD or other psychological disabilities. 

I tend to take a trainer/coach point of view - my job is to help you be your best self.  
There's lots of tools in my toolbox.  You can take the ones that make sense to you, learn how to use them, and go try them out.

Cognitive-behavioral therapy is a research supported approach that starts with the idea that what or how we think about a situation and what we do has a huge impact on how we feel.  In order to feel different, we often need to think different and do different.  First.

In addition to using CBT, I can teach you to make friends with your brain and your body via relaxation and guided imagery, as well as a practical understanding of how the brain works.

We're likely to talk about sleep, nutrition and exercise - the body and the brain are both part of the same package!  It's truly remarkable how much better equipped you are to deal with even the most complex problems when the basics are in place. ​

If you're suffering from anxiety, physical pain, or the after-effects of trauma, we might use an approach such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) or EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique).

Often, there's something to do at home - a practice or an action to try, a website to check out, a podcast to listen to, a book to read, or a question for journaling.
