Have you lived with a rollercoaster of emotions for as long as you can remember? Maybe your feelings can spike fast and crash hard… over and over. When it’s too much, you might cope in ways you’re not proud of, like lashing out or hurting yourself, because you want to be heard or just want some relief. I know you’re not trying to make life harder because this is how you’ve survived so far. If this is you, I’d love to help you understand why this happens, learn safer ways to cope, and build relationships that don’t feel so chaotic.
My goal is to help you get off the rollercoaster of emotions so that you can spend more time being the person you want to be. I will teach you how to notice what gets you on the rollercoaster in the first place, survive crisis, regulate your emotions, process trauma, and communicate more effectively with others.
Life is painful, but it is worth it when you live intentionally and welcome all of its experiences. Let’s begin your journey towards acceptance and living life according to your values. I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation where we can figure out where you are and where you'd like to go.

I integrate DBT and ACT as the cornerstones of my practice. This means using mindfulness to help you recognize and accept your thoughts, emotions, and urges as they are and learning skills to act in ways that are aligned with your values and the person you want to be. I offer I-CBT as a specialized treatment for OCD and BDD. I also offer prolonged exposure for PTSD.
