My philosophy in therapy is to believe every emotion and be curious about every thought. I take this job very seriously but I am seldom a serious person; therapy can be an enjoyable experience and simultaneously life-enriching if you are willing to do the work. My therapeutic style is direct and compassionate, jargon-free and analogy-strong, often using humor and irreverence when appropriate in session. I strive to create authentic relationships with my clients where pretentious jargon-speak is left at the door. Authenticity is my most important value as a clinician - I am the same human both inside and outside of the office…
I have been practicing therapy over seven years working with adults and adolescents in individual therapy, specializing in treatment of general anxiety, men’s issues, social anxiety, relationship anxiety, self-esteem, identity formation, assertiveness, and depressive disorders in addition to trauma, shame, grief, and Borderline Personality Disorder.
I was formally trained for 5 years in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) at The Wake Kendall Group, a DBT-Linehan Board Certified DBT Program located in Washington, D.C., in addition to expertise in numerous evidence-based practices (CBT, ACT, psychodynamic) and a significant incorporation of mindfulness and Zen Buddhism.
