I want to help my clients stay present in their lives, living outside of their heads and engaged with their surroundings, experiencing their emotions and meaningful relationships with themselves and others.
If you feel that you are "too emotional" or "too sensitive", my approach might be a good fit for you!
I know that this process can be scary and tiresome, and highly recommend booking a few consultations before choosing a therapist that feels like the right fit for you. I look forward to meeting.

My preferred approach is Dialectical, so I utilize DBT with an anti-oppression frame.
