Great to meet you!

I specialize in helping clients overcome stress, depression and anxiety. In addition to teaching effective communication, problem solving and connection building skills for healthy, long lasting relationships.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I use alot of mindfulness and dbt in my work with individuals to help overcome negative judgements and thought patterns to manage feelings and eliminate immediate unwanted reactions. With couples I use gottman communication techniques and imago to help clients understand and validate emotions while finding compromise.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients can expect to feel heard, understood and challenged to explore alternate explanations and stories that alleviate the experience of intense emotion when it's avoidable. In addition to tools on how to manage intense emotion when experiencing them is unavoidable.
