I am here to help foster and guide your process of self-discovery in an affirming environment. I work with individuals and families struggling with depression, anxiety, behavior issues, trauma, sexuality, gender exploration, relationships, life transitions and grief. My approach is to help you restore balance to your life, explore difficult emotions in a supportive manner and to learn how to respond to tough things differently. I believe in the healing power we each hold and will help you foster your growth and develop your strengths.
I leverage DBT, ERP, CBT, mindfulness and person centered therapies for their abilities to empower individuals, to guide validation and to restore balance. I facilitate DBT Skills groups for teens and adults with Northwest DBT Seattle. I also offer 1:1 DBT therapy through my private practice in Seattle.
If you are experiencing chaos, distress or significant emotional responses to events or circumstances in your life, please reach out to see if we might be a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you to learn how I can support you.
