My approach aligns with the belief that folks are much more than their symptoms and that each individual has inherent dignity and worth. I provide a customized unique approach with each person to best help them reach their goals. I work with individuals who are struggling to find purpose, are working through a difficult transition, and those who feel like their emotions are controlling them. I have a published literature review on body positivity and the influence on self-image; I utilize self-compassion and somatic techniques to increase empathetic and validating inner self talk.
My specialties include working with queer and nonbinary folx, polyamory and ethical non-monogamy, those who are struggling with interpersonal skills and setting boundaries, and those who struggle with complex thoughts and habits surrounding eating and self-image.
I am a facilitator of DBT groups and provide individual DBT therapy, evidence-based psychotherapy, and individual skills training. When developing a therapeutic relationship, I will work with you as partners to create an environment where we can explore your goals and foster your ideal life worth living.
