About

I work with clients who live with intense emotions, debilitating depression, immense anxiety, anger, trauma, or the urge to avoid feeling all together. For many this can lead to unrelenting crisis, self invalidation, being hijacked by emotions, impact relationships, and reinforce behaviors that are not in line with the life they want. I create a space to support clients with non-judgmentally looking at their thoughts, behaviors, and emotions that prompt suffering and inhibit access to long term goals. I support clients with recognizing the function of these behaviors, thoughts, and emotions that prompt pain and help find resolution.
I specialize in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, a modality that provides access to skills that support you in regulating emotions, change unhelpful patterns, decrease self invalidation, and provides a foundation to build the life that you want. Sessions are structured and focus on the needs of each individual thus getting you to your life worth living goals.
Coming to therapy is vulnerable and seeking to work towards change and acceptance within pain is an incredibly courageous act. I work with a dialectical philosophy; I hold a non-judgmental, validating, caring space for my clients AND engage with directness, honesty, and challenge to promote change. I would be honored to walk beside you in your journey.
