NOTE: At present, I am only accepting new clients for RO-DBT Skills Classes, beginning 2025. Contact me for more info about class! I help stressed, perfectionistic students and professionals learn how to relax. Too much self-control, or overcontrol, makes it hard to enjoy life and connect meaningfully with others. It’s exhausting to feel like you’re always ‘on’, performing, or wearing a mask. Overcontrol can lead to anxiety, depression, disordered eating, obsessive-compulsive behavior, and intimacy avoidance. You don’t have to struggle alone–I’ve been a therapist helping LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, and other folx get unstuck for over 10 years.
We’ll integrate science-based treatments like Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (RO-DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with embodied healing tools like meditation and yoga. Using practical (and fun!) research-validated strategies, you’ll learn to harness your self-control as a strength and break free from patterns that burn you out.
I know from personal experience that finding a therapist who gets you can be stressful. Let’s make this process easier for you: email me, call me, or visit waveways.org, and we’ll schedule a free consultation to discuss your hopes and needs.
