Great to meet you!

Hello! I can't wait to meet you. I'm very passionate about the work I do and feel lucky that I do work that I truly love. Supporting women towards more joy, peace & ease is what I'm all about.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in working with women, and I take a client centered approach. As a Linehan Board Certified DBT Therapist, I weave it through most work that I do. I am passionate about helping my client's normalize their experiences and providing evidence based tools for better coping with life's challenges. Depending on a client's needs I weave in a variety of perspectives and modalities including Mindfulness practice and Jungian psychology.

What you can expect from me

It is important that my clients learn new coping strategies and tools that they can take with them to use throughout their life. It's important that sessions go beyond just 'processing' and talking, to ensure my client's take away new concrete ideas and skillsets to practice so that they can reach their goals and feel more grounded.
