If the problem were easy, you'd have solved it by now. Not because you're not trying, but because trying harder isn't the same as trying differently. I work with teens, young adults, and adults using DBT and CBT to build real skills for anxiety, depression, emotion dysregulation, and relationship challenges. My style is warm but direct: structured sessions, clear goals, practical tools. Board-certified in DBT through the Linehan Board of Certification.
Struggling with anxiety, depression, intense emotions, or relationship patterns that keep repeating? I use structured DBT and CBT to help you understand what's driving the problem and build real skills to address it. PSYPACT-approved across 40+ states.
Most people who find me have been struggling for a while, trying to push through or wait for things to get better on their own. If that sounds familiar, getting here is already a step. You deserve support that actually helps.

My work is grounded in CBT and DBT. Our first session focuses on understanding what's bringing you in and setting clear goals together. From there, sessions are structured and skills-focused: we examine patterns in how you think, feel, and respond, and I teach practical strategies for managing emotions and creating change that actually lasts.
