I draw from DBT, ACT, and parts work (IFS) to help you build understanding, compassion, and balance from within.
If life has you feeling like Atlas bearing the weight of the sky or Sisyphus pushing a boulder up the mountain, you may have lost the purpose and peace that makes life meaningful. Battles and challenges of existence leave us with invisible weights and chains, stifling our voice, our will, and our inner power. I specialize in working with neurodivergency, caregivers, and women; those learning to unmask and embrace their truth, or those who are navigating overwhelming life transitions and identity shifts. Whatever your needs may be, therapy can be a space to rest, to rediscover your voice, and to remember who you are and once were.

Do you feel like you have to earn your worth? What if I told you, it is already yours.
But I know it doesn’t always feel that way.
A lot of the clients I work with have spent years questioning themselves. Feeling like they had to be useful, agreeable, or “put together” to be enough. That kind of pressure can be exhausting. It leaves you feeling disconnected from who you are and unsure how to get back to something that feels real and authentic.

Drawing from somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness, DBT, and EMDR, I help clients develop greater emotional resilience, self-compassion, and connection.
You may feel stuck in patterns you understand intellectually but can't seem to change. Perhaps anxiety is always running in the background, relationships feel more difficult than they should, or you're exhausted from carrying the weight of past experiences. I believe healing begins with cultivating an internal sense of safety. When our nervous systems learn to stay on alert, it can be difficult to access the parts of ourselves capable of connection, clarity, and growth. Therapy can provide a space to slow down, listen more deeply, and develop a different relationship with your emotions, thoughts, and experiences.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists
Who is DBT for?
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is designed for people who experience extreme emotional suffering because they lack the skills of emotion regulation and distress tolerance. The basic affliction can underlie a wide range of conditions, from borderline and other personality disorders to PTSD and treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. The therapy is helpful to those whose emotional reactivity is so intense it is disruptive to everyday functioning and leads to frequent crises.
Why do people need DBT?
The ability to regulate emotions is a core psychological skill that enables people to function in life and pay attention to the world outside themselves; it is consistently associated with well-being. DBT is designed to help people learn how to manage and regulate their emotions. Originally developed to treat people with borderline personality disorder whose extreme emotional suffering led to self-harming behavior and suicide attempts, the therapy is now applied to other conditions involving emotion dysregulation, particularly when other treatments have failed.
What happens in DBT?
Individuals meet weekly with their therapist to discuss their experiences relating to moods, behavior, and skills. Using checklists they maintain, they review emotional experiences and positive practices they engage in. The diaries help individuals discern what led up to a specific problem encountered, this is followed by discussion of the consequences of their actions. In addition, individuals may meet in class-like small groups to learn skills such as mindfulness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
How long does DBT last?
Because it is intended to establish long-lasting behavioral change among those with persistent problems, DBT is designed to last six months to a year. DBT includes both weekly sessions of individual therapy and weekly skills-training sessions conducted in small groups. Studies of DBT have documented improvement within a year of treatment, particularly in controlling self-harmful behavior; nevertheless, individuals may require therapy for several years.
