I practice psychotherapy from a relational lens; I believe meaningful change happens within a genuine, engaged relationship. I show up as myself in sessions: attentive, authentic, and human, because therapy doesn’t need to feel overly formal to be effective. There’s room here for both laughter and tears, and often they show up in the same session!

I draw primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but frequently integrate from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ( ACT), Narrative Therapy, and Trauma-Informed practices to tailor treatment to each client's unique needs.
Hi! It’s great that you are exploring support- we all deserve help when life gets tough. You are in the right place to take the first step.
To have a therapist is to have somebody on your side- somebody who listens to and understands your perspective- somebody to team up with to plan the steps that overcome your troubles. With a warm, authentic, and conversational approach, I keep a balance between the deep emotional work of therapy and the qualities of a real human connection. I strongly believe that healing can and should include humor, honest conversations, new perspectives, and some joy along the way.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists
How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.
What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?
The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.
Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?
Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.
How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?
A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
