Clients who come to see me typically struggle with the following symptoms/behaviors/presenting issues: frequent mood swings, intense/extreme emotions, fear of abandonment, chronic feelings of emptiness, SI/SIB behaviors/urges, family conflict, poor communication skills, impulsivity, and much more. Common diagnosis' that I treat are Borderline Personality Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, and Complex Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. I work with my clients on decreasing target behaviors (or unhealthy/unwanted behaviors), communicating effectively with others, and healing from trauma.
I provide DBT-inspired (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) as well as Prolonged Trauma Exposure Therapy and mainly work with adolescents and young adults. Treatment with me consists of weekly individual sessions as well as weekly groups. This means that you will be participating in therapy twice per week (at minimum).
I am extremely passionate about my work and dedicated to my clients. I 100% believe in the treatment approach that I provide. I want nothing more than to walk with you through your healing journey and assure you that you are not alone even in your darkest of times. Feel free to contact me via email, phone call, or text at any time.

I am primarily a DBT therapist and I incorporate trauma and trauma exposure therapy into my practice. The majority of my clients participate in both individual and group sessions, attending each once per week (both in-person). This process involves lots of difficult work and vulnerability, but I will be here every step of the way throughout the journey!
