I work with young adults and adults, as well as adolescents and families, who are navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, trauma, life transitions, and relationship stress. Many feel stuck, reactive, or unsure why things haven’t improved despite their efforts. With experience across levels of care, including higher-acuity settings, I support clients dealing with emotion dysregulation, self-harm, mood concerns, and eating disorders.
I use evidence-based approaches, including DBT and CBT, to help clients understand what’s driving their experiences and build practical skills to manage emotions, navigate relationships, and move through life transitions with more clarity and stability.
You might feel overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted from trying to manage things on your own. Therapy can help you make sense of what’s going on and find a more manageable way forward. If this resonates, I’d be glad to connect.
