If you have experienced trauma and are finding it difficult to function and feel present in your daily life, you have found the right therapist! I am dedicated to meeting you right where you are and helping you move forward. I believe that a supportive therapeutic relationship is the foundational tool that will help you access the life you deserve to have. At Ensō Mental Health, we offer compassionate and competent mental health care in an environment that is just as healthy for our staff as it is for you, our client! We practice what we teach, and we want to teach you to live your best life.
I am a strong promoter of self care, specializing in working with depression, anxiety, mood & personality disorders, grief, & relationships. I am DBT trained, focusing on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, & interpersonal effectiveness. I am also trained in EMDR which is specifically designed to help people struggling with trauma.
Ready to take the first step? Call or email today, and a Client Care Coordinator will reach out to answer all of your questions and get you scheduled. We are a group practice and can connect you quickly with a therapist, often getting you in within 7-14 days, which is much sooner than most practices! You won't be put on a waitlist with Ensō Mental Health!
