I work well with folks who appreciate a little chaos and humor, and I thrive when there is an interest in tackling treatment interfering behaviors. I practice Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy for phobias, social anxiety, Panic Disorder, and OCD. I am also trained in Prolonged Exposure Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for chronic insomnia. Traditional talk therapy for mood disorders, ACT, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy are also interventions I draw from. Additionally, I am currently in an expressive arts training program to become a Certified Poetry Therapist.
I am primarily an Exposure and Response Prevention therapist, and I am certified in that modality. It means I focus on helping people to make behavioral changes that will eventually lead to feeling differently, rather than focusing on building insight. Neurons that fire together wire together. Truly we learn best by doing, over and over again.
It is hard to be a sentient creature. Our emotional support animal could probably use an emotional support animal, at this point. If you would like an emotional support human who just happens to have a degree and specialized training - feel free to email me. I am currently accepting referrals for an 8-week Poetry Therapy Group, until membership is filled.

I practice a variety of evidence-based therapies, though they can at times be less structured than say, in group therapy. You can expect me to provide a lot of information about why a particular intervention would be recommended for you, and what we hope to see happen in the course of therapy.
