Are you exhausted from feeling overwhelmed by your emotions? Do you struggle to stay focused and organized, and find traditional therapy hasn't quite clicked? I specialize in coaching individuals to navigate and process challenging life events and break free from the limiting patterns that stem from their past. My focus is on developing DBT coping skills to successfully manage the lingering effects of difficult childhood and life experiences. I provide the guidance and structure necessary to help you reframe their narrative and step into your power.
I've been teaching DBT skills professionally since 2014. I founded Green Mountain DBT in 2022 to guide people in navigating intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships. My neurodivergent perspective provides a unique, non-pathologizing approach to building the life you truly want to live.
I know how lonely and frustrating it can be to feel like no one understands. Your journey toward a life you love is possible, and you don't have to walk the path alone. If my approach resonates with you, I invite you to reach out and schedule a complimentary consultation. Let's see if we're a good fit to work together.
