My approach to therapy is based on developing a deep emotional connection with the people in our lives, improving self-esteem, accessing inner resources to cope with difficulties and learning to have compassion for ourselves and others. Although therapy can be very helpful when we are going through a difficult time in our lives, it is also an important self-care practice. Just like we attend yoga or the gym to take care of our bodies, taking care of our emotional and mental health is just as important. For me, wellness needs to be holistic, both body and mind need to be treated to truly achieve inner peace and fulfillment.

My specialities as a therapist are 1) children & adolescents and 2) student athletes. Many individuals within this population suffer with mood disorders, behavioral issues, anxiety, school & sport performance stress, identity crisis, family conflict, and low self-esteem. As a child, teenager, or parent, managing all these life stressors can take a toll on our mental health. My hope as a therapist is to make clients feel safe to process these struggles, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and improve their social/ family connections around them.

My intention as a therapist is to provide support, problem-solving skills and enhanced coping strategies for issues such as anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma (PTSD/complex), relationship difficulties, grief, unresolved childhood issues, stress management, struggles with self-esteem and shame. Many people also find that therapy can be a tremendous asset to aid in personal growth and improve their relationships. I bring a strong sense of compassion to my work and strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental space so that we can get clarification on what you would like to be different in your life and how to get you there.

The main reason why couples seek counseling is due to a communication breakdown that begins to dismantle an otherwise healthy relationship. Our primary need is to be understood, but if partners are using different modes of communication, there can be a disconnect. DT can provide the jump-start to help find the excitement and communication that couples experienced at the beginning of a relationship, and the common ground that can build a stronger place from which to build trust. In learning more about the roles we play, DT offers partners the opportunity to gain greater insight about themselves and about their problems in relationships.

If things were simple, you wouldn't be here. The complex challenges that bring high-achievers to therapy often exist in the shadow of success—the relentless drive for excellence that never feels enough, the disconnect between professional achievements and personal fulfillment, or the relationships that suffer while careers flourish. I work with accomplished individuals and couples across diverse fields who may appear to have it all while privately navigating difficult terrain. With both personal and professional understanding of high-achievement environments, I offer a unique combination of genuine empathy and practical insight.

My goal is to help you find your way to a journey of self-love, healing, and learning the other side of yourself that you seek. I find that the most effective way is to approach everyone in an authentic, strength-based, nonjudgmental balanced approach in order to meet the individual where they are in their stage of healing. I provide a safe space for individuals to discuss their deepest issues to help them process, identify, and cope with past traumas or issues they’ve been dealing with. Doing so gives them another perspective and provides another route to their healing journey.
