My job is to hold space for you—to help calm the storm, foster self-awareness, and build a sense of control through skill development. I have worked with clients as young as 2 yrs - 90+ years of age; recognizing that every individual has unique needs. Some find healing through play, others through art, psychoeducation, or direct, honest conversation. Together, we explore what works best for you as we expand your therapeutic toolbox.
The session's tone is led by deep breathing to center and prepare us for the hard work to be done. We collaboratively work to find that peaceful equilibrium with mind, body, and soul. We explore mindfulness training (DBT), behavior modification (CBT), emotional regulation techniques, and consistent check-ins to monitor our progress and meet our goals.
Let's build your treatment plan together by setting short- and long-term goals. Discovering what works—and what doesn't—is a natural part of this process. Since you came here with a specific purpose, tracking your progress is essential. Remember to be gentle with yourself along this journey.

Many of us experience anxiety and depressive symptoms that interfere with our overall life satisfaction. Discovering what we need to increase our sense of joy and fulfillment is essential to the foundational work that supports the use of therapeutic skills. This process, in turn, strengthens our mental health. It's some of the hardest work we'll ever do—but it's also the most rewarding.
