I use evidence-based approaches (CBT and DBT) to help those who struggle with behavioral health concerns.
Extremes in our emotional and psychological states can lead to imbalance, avoidance and mindlessness, and can be related to extremes in other areas of our health, such as eating, activity, and sleep. Eating too much or not fueling our bodies enough, stress or emotional eating-these are ways we cope with or respond to extremes in our thoughts and emotions, and distracts and disonnects us from our life values and goals. I am here to help you reestablish your values and goals by focusing on a more balanced perspective and awareness of your mind, body and behaviors.

I use EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy ( DBT) to help clients manage trauma, anxiety, and emotional challenges.
I believe everyone holds the strength to grow and heal, even when life feels overwhelming. You might feel constant pressure to excel at work, struggle with strained relationships, or carry the weight of past trauma. Whatever you're facing, you don't have to go through it alone. Therapy doesn’t have to feel clinical or one-sided—I offer a genuine, authentic connection. In our sessions, you’ll find a warm, compassionate space where you can be yourself. If reaching out feels intimidating, that’s completely normal. Just take a deep breath and call me—we’ll take this step together, at your pace.
