I most often combine relational talk therapy, with a coaching approach, then I sprinkle in awesome techniques and then add in some skills development (CBT & DBT).
Are you feeling zapped out from worry, stress or negative thoughts? Do you need to work on better boundaries, trigger areas, and improved self care to save yourself time and energy? Is trauma, depression, stress, or anxiety triggering you or getting you into fight or flight mode? Are you feeling sad from a death or a break up? Therapy can help you be more aware, discerned, authentic, calm, healed, eased, less negativity, having better boundaries, be less triggered, take things less personally, more personal power, better self care and having healthier connections.

An ideal client is one who is open to seeing that life can be different. In session I use systems theory and bring awareness to how the 'system' we are currently living in is creating more mental and internal strain which is disconnecting us from our authentic self. I use a blended style of modalities that help the individual heal the wounds that have resulted from life. I blend mindfulness based interventions with Accelerated Resolution Therapy, IFS, polyvagal theory, CBT, DBT, and attachment theory to help individuals find the solutions that exist inside themselves.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists
Who is DBT for?
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is designed for people who experience extreme emotional suffering because they lack the skills of emotion regulation and distress tolerance. The basic affliction can underlie a wide range of conditions, from borderline and other personality disorders to PTSD and treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. The therapy is helpful to those whose emotional reactivity is so intense it is disruptive to everyday functioning and leads to frequent crises.
Why do people need DBT?
The ability to regulate emotions is a core psychological skill that enables people to function in life and pay attention to the world outside themselves; it is consistently associated with well-being. DBT is designed to help people learn how to manage and regulate their emotions. Originally developed to treat people with borderline personality disorder whose extreme emotional suffering led to self-harming behavior and suicide attempts, the therapy is now applied to other conditions involving emotion dysregulation, particularly when other treatments have failed.
What happens in DBT?
Individuals meet weekly with their therapist to discuss their experiences relating to moods, behavior, and skills. Using checklists they maintain, they review emotional experiences and positive practices they engage in. The diaries help individuals discern what led up to a specific problem encountered, this is followed by discussion of the consequences of their actions. In addition, individuals may meet in class-like small groups to learn skills such as mindfulness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
How long does DBT last?
Because it is intended to establish long-lasting behavioral change among those with persistent problems, DBT is designed to last six months to a year. DBT includes both weekly sessions of individual therapy and weekly skills-training sessions conducted in small groups. Studies of DBT have documented improvement within a year of treatment, particularly in controlling self-harmful behavior; nevertheless, individuals may require therapy for several years.
