My focus on clients with mood and/or bipolar disorders incorporates Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavior therapies along with education on managing the diagnosis.
I work with clients desiring help with bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, and trauma issues, in addition to women in mixed-orientation marriages. I also offer counseling for goals/values clarification, later career/empty nest planning, codependency, relationship stress, and couples/premarital counseling. I believe in helping clients assess and appreciate their strengths in order for them to move forward toward achieving their goals. It is important to create a safe, non-judgmental environment in which clients may explore, share, and rebuild their own life stories.

I do this with DBT, Brainspotting, and other therapy techniques.
Things have started falling apart around you. You're worried about losing a relationship, your job, or worse. People close to you have started to mention they are worried about you. A part of you wants to change, but you're stuck between unbearable emotions and trying to keep everything under control. And it's not working out. You may be lashing out, drinking more, or avoiding people close to you. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, anger, shame from the past, or out-of-control substance use, you don’t have to stay where you are – suffering. You’re resilient and persistent, and right now, you’re just stuck.

I specialize in DBT and am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional.
Often, life's deepest moments are intertwined with the relationships we form; and some of life's biggest struggles result from barriers to those connections. Whether it's anxiety, anger management, codependence, impulsivity, isolation, self-esteem or something else - you and I can tackle them together. The therapeutic alliance is a non-judgmental partnership intended to facilitate your personal growth and self understanding, and it is not always an easy journey. Facing challenges in the safe container of the therapeutic environment helps build resilience to face whatever life tosses your way.
