I am a relational therapist who specializes in working with individuals with big emotions. Trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I focus on helping clients build concrete, practical tools to navigate emotional intensity, relationship challenges, and overwhelming life experiences. My approach is structured, compassionate, and grounded in evidence-based techniques that support real change. I work with people who may feel stuck, reactive, or emotionally dysregulated, and together we develop skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and effective communication. This work goes beyond insight!
What sets me apart is that I take an active, skills-based approach to therapy. While being heard and validated is essential, I believe real change happens when clients are equipped with practical tools they can use. If you have seen a therapist before and felt like you wanted something a little bit more - I would be a great fit for you!
I believe that all of us have the power to change, we often just need help to get started. Growing up in the pacific northwest, I am intimately familiar with the culture of the region and how isolating we can feel in the world around us at times. I am here to offer support, encouragement and skills that can help you through a stressful time in your life
