Many of my clients come to therapy feeling worn down and alone, stuck in patterns they can identify but can’t seem to break. Often, they’re carrying the weight of family history, unresolved trauma, or overwhelming anxiety. I support teens, adults, families, and couples in untangling generational patterns, learning skills for distress tolerance and emotional regulation, and balancing the acceptance of reality with the motivation to change.
Rooted in Family Systems Therapy, I blend Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) with holistic approaches such as somatics and Polyvagal Theory. I aim to help you build practical skills while honoring the mind-body connection. With couples, I use the Gottman Method to help partners improve communication, strengthen trust, and heal from betrayal.
I bring warmth and humor to the room, but I’m also here to gently challenge you when I sense something is holding you back. With a dialectical approach, I’ll help you learn to balance emotion with reasoning to reduce maladaptive behaviors, increase acceptance, and inspire change. If you’re ready to face what’s been holding you back, I’m here to support you.
