DBT Resiliency Center specializes in DBT for Children,Teens and Families. Adults, teens, tweens and children who would like to learn skills for coping with intense emotions and working towards a life worth living is something that we are very passionate about. Each of us at any given time are doing the best we can and there are times we can do better. We wake up every day wanting to be the best versions of ourselves and sometimes do old behaviors we no longer find effective. We want to grow and learn how to change certain behaviors. Intense emotions, feelings of hopelessness sometimes make that change difficult to achieve.

You are capable of making positive changes. You can have more fulfilling relationships. You have the ability to cope with life's demands. You can experience self-acceptance and happiness. I provide compassionate therapy and counseling to individuals.

Are you anxious, always irritated or feel guilty for no reason? Do mood swings cause problems in your life? Do you keep making the same mistakes over and over? Sadly, many people manage the symptoms with prescriptions, street drugs, or alcohol, often resulting in making things worse. These treatments are meant to be temporary, and never really solve the problem. As the drugs become less effective their lives spiral out of control. These people feel increasingly anxious, hopeless and finally start pushing away friends and loved ones. Isolation becomes the norm, and loneliness takes over. But it doesnt have to be this way!

I enjoy helping my clients grow, heal, and thrive! My counseling approach is positive, strengths-based, and built on a foundation of active listening, respect, kindness, and encouragement. I provide a safe, supportive, nonjudgmental space for you to express and explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I consider counseling a collaborative process with the purpose of helping you achieve your goals for positive change, healing, and personal growth. You can expect me to be a skillful helper, a knowledgeable guide, and a compassionate presence with you on your journey.

I have worked with many people throughout my career and found it amazing how we are all different and every single one of us have something amazing to offer, something not everyone has, something others need, let me help you find what is it that you do not see that makes you who you are. My focus is to bring compassion, kindness, empathy, genuine concern, experience, knowledge and commit to offer you genuine experience in achieving the next step in personal growth. I am here to listen, provide support, and guide you to a successful and peaceful feature.

My practice is focused on helping individuals who struggle with depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorders and post-traumatic stress. I specialize in comprehensive grief and loss issues and am passionate about empowering women and other survivors of abuse.

We all seek peace, happiness, love, and belonging. My passion is helping people connect in healthy ways and healing wounds that keep us stuck in old behaviors. I am committed to assisting you in becoming your best self. I provide a safe, non-judgmental, supportive environment for self-exploration and personal growth. I view therapy as a collaborative journey that can help tune into your authentic self, develop attainable goals, and work toward sustainable, meaningful change.

Picking a counselor can be an intimidating process! I completely get it. One of the most important aspects of finding the right fit includes "clicking" with your counselor.

I am willing to assist you no matter what is going on in your life. My goal is to collaborate with you so that you feel empowered to overcome your obstacles, find peace and achieve your goals.

I am currently not accepting new clients. As a licensed psychotherapist, I embrace a "whole person" approach in the treatment of adults struggling with developmental trauma, loss and grief, life transitions, depression, anxiety, and issues with disempowerment, cultural conditioning, and codependency. Inclusion of Somatic Experiencing, a body-aware modality, with other aspects of psychotherapy helps to access and resolve long held, sometimes hidden, responses to overwhelming circumstances.

Maybe life feels like a train wreck (or, worse yet, dull and boring) at the moment, but with some help: you've got this. I work with women, especially, who are quietly considering making life changes and are learning not to fear "upset" on their ways to living freely as the beautiful gifts to the universe each of us is! Time to learn to love everything about you-- you deserve an engaging and joyful life. While therapy can be scary, plan on laughing a lot if you're working with me to discover how liberating it is to live authentically.

You no longer need to feel isolated or ashamed of your feelings. I have created a safe place for you to explore your concerns with empathic understanding and acceptance. I have specialized in anxiety, depression and relationship issues since 1982. Does your anxiety interfere with daily activities and relationships? We will explore the root of your issue and give you tools to help you calm down and be in control of them. Perhaps you force a smile on your face but inside are feeling despair or separated from others and your surroundings.Together we will get to the root of these issues so you can have healthy, fulfilling relationships.

We all have a unique story which defines how we maneuver in our daily lives. I will be that therapist who provides you with a safe and welcoming environment to tell your story. I am aware that everyone has challenges, struggles, and sometimes feel “stuck” at some point in their life. I will be the first to tell you that this is ok, you are not alone. My goal is to work collaboratively with you so that you feel empowered to overcome these challenges and struggles. I am well versed in trauma, depression, anxiety, suicidality, ADHD, gender identity/sexuality, shame/guilt, and self-esteem.

Thank you for your interest. In my work, above all, I aim to hear and understand you as wholly as possible as part of creating a path toward healing together. Usually, that involves experiential, relational, mindfulness-based and psychodynamic interventions that I have developed with over eight years of clinical and research experience with a broad range of clinical and human issues. Outside of my private practice, I am a Psychologist at the University of Arizona.

Everyone has their own unique story to tell and needs someone they feel is safe, confidential, and ready to listen. I am passionate about people and the stories they are willing to share -- their hurts and their joys, their losses and their successes. Absolutely everyone, at some point in their life, experiences a sense of feeling stuck or feeling unable to move forward, and that’s OK! The fact that you are seeking counseling tells me that you have incredible courage, and are ready to push forward, but may not know where to begin.
