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.
I specialize in DBT and am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. My clients effectively tackle symptoms such as panic attacks, self-harm, suicidality, angry outbursts, interpersonal conflicts, and problems with identity. Together we will identify your life worth living goals and healthy outlets for expression and leisure.
You've already got everything you need to become your favorite version of yourself. I'm here to help you discover those characteristics and add a few simple tools to manage your emotional wellbeing. Let's get to work!
