Many of us find life too rushed, too busy, and too overwhelming. Taking time to analyze your situation with an empathetic person who can listen, not only what you are saying, but what you need to say, can be freeing. In my work, I really want to know you and to partner with you in managing life.
My therapeutic approach and intensive training is centered around Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT). DBT focuses on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal skills and mindfulness. We also look at family of origin issues in addition to the stresses of life
Life is hard. Managing life is difficult. And yet, life holds beauty, joy and hope. How can you make the most of your situation and how can I help? Contact me to see if we might be a good match.

I believe that we cannot make advances in any part of our life without a plan, without hard work, and some help along the way. I ask my clients to keep a notebook of our sessions, to do some homework between sessions, and to take therapy seriously. I will take your therapy seriously and expect you to do the same. Let's get to work!
