Not accepting new clients
When working with adults, my ideal client is motivated to seek change in their life. They are looking to build skills to overcome feelings of anxiety and depression by looking inward and doing the work at the root of the challenge. My clients and I work together toward identity development and a better sense of self. When working with children and teens, my ideal client is one who struggles to use their voice to express their emotions and their needs. Through play and games, I help them find the confidence to discover their unique identities!
I offer a depth of knowledge of child development, attachment, women's health, eating disorders, and anxiety and depressive disorders and training in several treatment models. I utilize my training to create unique treatment plans to help each client set and meet achievable goals and walk away from treatment with a set of skills to tackle any challenge.
Just like a scraped knee or a broken bone, your mental health deserves time and care to heal and come back stronger. Together we will work to develop a plan that meets you or your child's needs and goals, aimed at emotion regulation, confidently voicing your needs, and identity development. I am eager to speak with you and learn about you soon!

Mentalization-Based Treatment for Adults
Through our interactions with others, we experience different interpersonal connections, which can be harmful or positive. Varied emotional states can disrupt mental processing and create potential for misinterpreting information. These miscommunications hinder our ability to maintain relationships, foster deeper connections, and limit our identity and growth. We utilize group dynamics to explicitly discuss our emotional and cognitive processes, allowing the group members to take a curious stance to understand encounters flexibly.

Adolescent: Mentalization-Based Treatment
This group focuses on the mental processes that occur from various emotional states regarding others and the self. We explore the depressive, anxiety, overwhelming, and other feelings that disrupt our ability to interact with our own and others’ thoughts and feelings. This process allows for the growth in personal identity, family dynamics, school achievement, peer connections, and more. We encourage a flexible yet firm approach to understand our minds through various expressive techniques, both verbal and playful.
