If you're ready to explore your emotional life, then I'm ready to meet you where you are. Instead of triaging emotions as they come, I specialize in creating an enduring relationship with your feelings that will help you throughout the inevitable peaks and valleys of life. I believe that building a foundation of awareness and self-compassion are important tools to building a better present and future. We'll work together to build resilience, find greater acceptance for ourselves and others, and turn toward challenges instead of away.
My clinical approach is rooted in a strong therapeutic relationship. I use a blend of styles to support a psychodynamic foundation. Primarily, I draw from DBT, ACT, IFS, and EMDR techniques to uncover emotions and foundational memories, recognize patterns, and encourage greater understanding of your core beliefs.
Honestly, therapy is hard, but it's worth the effort. Choosing a clinician that is right for you is a core element of the work. I offer 15 minute complimentary phone consultations to get to know each other better and see if we are the right match.

I often work with folks who are neurodivergent and are experiencing co-occuring anxiety and depression symptoms. I also specialize in working with LGBTQ populations. The first couple months we'll start with skill building, reframing, and emotional tolerance. After a baseline is reached we can dig deeper to create longer-lasting solutions to experiencing emotional distress.

I most often use DBT, ACT, IFS, and EMDR in my work. However, I am a firm believer in putting the client's needs first, and if I know of a different treatment type that a client may benefit from I am more than willing to integrate that into our work.
