Great to meet you!

I work with clients of diverse backgrounds, sexual orientations, genders, and relationship structures. I specialize in assisting adults and couples to recognize and disrupt existing patterns learned throughout their lives, which can affect them in multiple ways. Additionally, I offer practical skills that can be applied immediately to address symptoms of anxiety, depression, and relationship issues, thereby improving overall functioning.

My approach to therapy

I use a variety of evidence-based modalities including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), MI (Motivational Interviewing), IFS (Internal Family Systems), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills (DBT-informed*) to assist you in reaching your specific goals.

*Please note, while I have years of experience on a comprehensive Stage 1 DBT program, I currently offer DBT-informed care.

What you can expect from me

I know how important the therapeutic alliance is, and want clients to feel accepted as they are. I lean on a person-centered approach and work collaboratively with clients. I strive to engage in a nonjudgmental, affirming, and empowering way.
