I am master level trained in many therapeutic modalities, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, ERP, Solutions Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.
Your mind never shuts off and "just relax" doesn't work. You struggle to do every day little tasks because you're so completely overwhelmed by school, family, or work. What looks like thriving to everyone else is really just survival, but you would never let anyone know that. I help people feel calmer in their own mind so they can redirect & focus on what matters. You can do and achieve big things while also feeling peace. I work with clients in a variety of areas that may be affecting their daily life including executive functioning challenges and ADHD, perfectionism, OCD, life transitions, relationship issues, & substance misuse.

The journey can seem dark or scary, especially when it feels like you’re walking alone. I often work with clients struggling due to anxiety, depression or a history of trauma (combat and sexual trauma survivors). These conditions can make one feel like there is no hope or that they are stuck, but that’s not true. Trauma puts us in a perpetual state of ‘survivor mode’. It is possible to go from just surviving, to thriving. What you want in life is possible, we just have to do some work together to get you there.

I work with high-achieving women who feel stretched thin by success yet unsettled inside. They’ve built careers, families, and lives they care about, but the constant responsibility leaves them running on fumes. They want clarity, steadiness, and a way to lead themselves forward without abandoning what they’ve built. Together, we create space for them to reset, trust their own compass, and step into a life that feels both sustainable and deeply their own.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists
Who is DBT for?
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is designed for people who experience extreme emotional suffering because they lack the skills of emotion regulation and distress tolerance. The basic affliction can underlie a wide range of conditions, from borderline and other personality disorders to PTSD and treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. The therapy is helpful to those whose emotional reactivity is so intense it is disruptive to everyday functioning and leads to frequent crises.

Why do people need DBT?
The ability to regulate emotions is a core psychological skill that enables people to function in life and pay attention to the world outside themselves; it is consistently associated with well-being. DBT is designed to help people learn how to manage and regulate their emotions. Originally developed to treat people with borderline personality disorder whose extreme emotional suffering led to self-harming behavior and suicide attempts, the therapy is now applied to other conditions involving emotion dysregulation, particularly when other treatments have failed.

What happens in DBT?
Individuals meet weekly with their therapist to discuss their experiences relating to moods, behavior, and skills. Using checklists they maintain, they review emotional experiences and positive practices they engage in. The diaries help individuals discern what led up to a specific problem encountered, this is followed by discussion of the consequences of their actions. In addition, individuals may meet in class-like small groups to learn skills such as mindfulness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

How long does DBT last?
Because it is intended to establish long-lasting behavioral change among those with persistent problems, DBT is designed to last six months to a year. DBT includes both weekly sessions of individual therapy and weekly skills-training sessions conducted in small groups. Studies of DBT have documented improvement within a year of treatment, particularly in controlling self-harmful behavior; nevertheless, individuals may require therapy for several years.
