We don't do anything for "no reason" and find ways to adapt to our circumstances in whatever way we know how. Even our "negative" behaviors serve a function. But when you're ready to swap those behaviors for even better ones, I can help. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) helps people recognize when their actions are no longer serving them and more skillfully meet their needs.

I use my expertise in DBT and trauma-informed care to help adults & children in NH, MA, VT and ME make positive change. I offer individual and family therapy, as well as DBT Skills Groups. I see clients virtually as well as in-person in Amesbury, MA.

DBT helps people make lasting changes to build a life that they don’t need to escape from— a life that feels more worth living. My style is warm, humorous and direct; I will cheer you on while also challenging you to live your best life.
