I strive to create an atmosphere of trust, respect, and compassion that allows people to become more self-aware, to find healing, and to living a more fulfilling life. I'm very familiar with the needs and issues of undergraduate, graduate, and medical students because I worked for two years at the University Counseling Center and have had many students in my practice. I offer individual and relationship counseling and integrate a variety of therapeutic approaches and techniques based on the particular needs of each client or couple. I provide support and direction, but also find it essential to work collaboratively with my clients. And, I not only help address the specific problems clients bring to therapy, but also strive to assist them in identifying and fostering their specific strengths and abilities. I have a teletherapy only practice. I’ve worked with a large number of students via this format and it has proved very successful. Many people like it because it's so convenient, especially when they’re juggling a busy schedule or don't have transportation. I’m always glad to have an initial conversation to answer any questions you might have about teletherapy or my practice. A note about insurance and payment: Some insurances other than those listed under the finance section may be covered. Actual costs for therapy are based on your insurance's copay amounts. Most clients with insurance only pay between $10-$40 per session. If I'm not able to accept your insurance, session costs will be based on your income if you are emancipated from your parents or a graduate student. If you are still a dependent in your parent's household then your fee would be based on your parent's combined income.

Do you worry about the future? Would you describe yourself as having difficulty with perfectionism, relationships with family & friends, social anxiety or identity? We are a small practice with two therapists--Spencer & Carlie who love providing therapy to young adults as they navigate this exciting and nerve wracking time moving from childhood and dependence to adulthood and independence. We often work with young adults who may have had therapy in high school but did not previously find therapy helpful (often due to a lack of agency in picking their therapist, misunderstanding or invalidation of their experiences, disruptions in confidentiality or lack of concrete coping skills/goals worked on). We provide a reparative experience where clients feel genuinely supported and able to advocate and ask for what they need. We use a variety of different therapy modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectal-Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Attachment Based Therapy, EMDR, Goal-oriented Therapy and Mindfulness. Our clients often move towards a feeling of confidence, improved relationships and belief in their abilities to handle any challenges that may come their way.

Since opening our doors to patients in 2015, Mosaic Clinical Services' vision is to be a leading mental health trauma treatment center. We specialize in patients seeking recovery from complex trauma using the latest Evidence-Based Practices.

Traditional therapy can often feel like endless conversations with relatively limited results. If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship problems, unwanted habits and addictions and you’re ready to make change using concrete techniques, I can help. My clients learn to change their thoughts and feelings with steadfast results. I use the TEAM-CBT approach to therapy that is both efficient and effective in creating lasting change. We will identify your unique needs, develop an effective treatment plan, and utilize powerful techniques that last a lifetime. My clients find that the process itself gives them the confidence to carry out the plan because it is clear and makes sense. Your commitment to the process, like homework in-between sessions, also makes this treatment effective. Throughout it, we’ll monitor your progress to ensure you’re on the right track to healing and wellness. My confidence in this process is grounded in 20 years of experience, my CBT certification through the Academy of Cognitive Therapy and my training and affiliation with the Feeling Good Institute. I am committed to working with diverse clients using a culturally responsive approach because the trust that comes with this understanding and empathy, are also vital to the way we work together. Many of my clients reach their goals within 8 to 12 hour long weekly sessions. An intensive format (longer sessions over a shorter period of time) is also an option if that works better for you. If you're interested in a free 15 minute phone consultation to see if we're a good fit, I'd love to connect with you.

Managing anxiety and chronic stress can be isolating, but you do not need to do it alone. Do you feel consumed by worry? Like you're always waiting for the next disaster to strike? Do you find it difficult to be present in your life due to racing thoughts or feelings of dread? Have you been struggling with the exhaustion, tension, or panic that never seems to leave you? You see where you want to be, but you're feeling stuck and are uncertain about the next steps. You can grow and heal by voicing your thoughts in a safe environment, exploring your emotions, and expressing yourself in a purposeful way! We are all trying to cope with life's continuous changes. During our sessions, we will evaluate where unhelpful thoughts and ways of coping originated from and create goals to lead to healthier habits and a deeper sense of self. Since the body and mind are connected, we will also focus on managing the physical symptoms of stress to support overall wellness. As a trauma-informed therapist, I recognize that everyone has a unique story and I would be privileged to hear yours and to walk alongside you in your healing journey. I invite you to reach out via email or my website to book a free 15-min consultation. During that time, we can discuss what therapy may consist of for you.

I have years of experience working with folks of all ages in various settings towards their mental health and life goals. With curiosity, humor, and compassion, I strive to create a space to explore the oftentimes messy worlds within and around us. I believe we all have an innate profound ability to heal ourselves that can be activated with the right support. I specialize in anxiety, depression, life transitions, establishing/maintaining routines, and supporting those with chronic health challenges primarily - though I have experience with a wide array of life conditions. While the work is often grounded in psychodynamic and CBT approaches, other healing modalities are incorporated as well. You can expect that goals, values, and identities, what makes us-us will be explored, and often guides the process. I welcome any questions you may have, and look forward to hearing from you.

Your effort to find help should be met with a comfortable space where you can self-identify areas of concern for the treatment to focus on. I treat therapy as a collaborative effort between myself and my patients, directing our attention towards symptom reduction and improving overall health. I offer sessions by telehealth and in-person at this time. I am happy to do a free phone consultation at the number provided on this page to see if your needs would fit the style of therapy I offer.

Welcome and congratulations on taking the first step towards meeting with a therapist! You feel that that you don't have a good sense of who you are. You behave in different ways around your friends, family members, and colleagues. It's hard for you to keep your emotions in check and at times you feel your emotions are out of control. As a result, you react in ways that make things more challenging for yourself and others. Your relationships often have conflict, friends don't seem to stick around, and you can't figure out why. You wonder if you're doing something wrong and if there is something you can do differently. You question why things at home, with work/school, or with relationships can't be easier. When you try to handle these problems, it seems like things only get better for a little while, or they just get worse. I help clients figure out what truly matters most to them in life; assist clients in learning how to connect with and live in the present moment; support clients in finding ways to handle intense emotions, respond in ways that don't erupt their relationships, and to weather through the tough times.
