Hello! If you are looking for help on how to manage big emotions, develop more effective problem-solving skills and work towards self-acceptance, I would love to be a part of your mental health journey. I typically work with teens and adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, emotional regulation or distress tolerance. I specialize in DBT, CBT and body acceptance. Additionally, I am EMDR trained (a trauma-based treatment). EMDR is a widely used treatment to help individuals reprocess trauma in a safe and effective way. If you are struggling, please know you are not alone. Please reach out!
Clients I work with typically would like to be more effective in their relationships, improve their communication style and often, would like to feel more understood.
Please reach out via email if you would like to begin the therapeutic process!

I often work with clients who are looking for help in their interpersonal relationships or are looking to better manage emotions in their day to day lives. We will identify your main treatment goals and create a roadmap together. Most folks I work with find major symptom relief from sharing, problem solving, collaboration and skill building.
