I am a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience providing evidence-based treatment for mood-related disorders including anxiety and depression. I have also had specialized training and experience in treating insomnia through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia.

When called for, I teach skills to help clients tolerate the distress that often accompanies poor sleep and the challenges that behavior change can create. Furthermore, mindfulness strategies play a central role in my treatment approach.
