Great to meet you!

I am a compassionate therapist specializing in DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), helping clients build balance, resilience, and emotional clarity. Grounded in warmth and authenticity, I prioritize strong rapport and genuine validation to create a safe, collaborative space for growth. My approach blends evidence-based DBT techniques with an intuitive understanding of each client’s unique experiences, empowering them to develop skills, strengthen relationships, and move toward a more fulfilling life.

My approach to therapy

Clients can expect a warm welcoming environment that is their space to learn, grow, and express themselves in a safe non-judgemental space. I have over 20 years experience in the mental health field and 15 years experience in private practice. I have also spent my entire post-graduate career on DBT skill development as a clinician.

What you can expect from me

Whether you meet with us online or in person, therapy starts by creating a supportive, collaborative space. Together, we work to understand what’s been contributing to your difficulties and develop an approach that supports clarity, steadiness, and meaningful change over time.
