When emotions feel overwhelming, we sometimes act in ways that don't reflect our values. My goal is to support you as you work to engage in life more authentically using effective nervous system regulation and by increasing skillfulness. I believe that people are always doing the best that they can with the resources that they have, and they also want and need to deal with the hardships of life more effectively - that's where I step in to accept, educate, and guide you. Some of my areas of specialization include Addiction, ADHD, Anxiety, BPD, Depression, PMDD, Trauma Reprocessing, and Relationships & Communication.
My approach is empowerment-based- grounded in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye-Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), and Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS)- a holistic experience that is tailored to your unique needs and personality. I love working with adults, professionals, athletes, healthcare workers, & first responders.
It can take tremendous courage to start a therapeutic journey, and I hope that I can join you. The fact that you’ve made it this far means that you are resilient. I'll provide you with an empathic and safe space, authentic connection, loving challenge, encouragement, and new skills for navigating life to build upon the resilience you already possess.
