Therapy is about building a new relationship - usually a better and healthier one - than the ones we experienced in our families of origin. This takes time, but it's good work, because working with a therapist is a way to heal the past, fix the present and look more confidently toward the future. I help people develop better coping skills, as well as understanding and compassion for where they've been.
DBT Skills Group lead as designed by Dialectical Behavior Therapy founder, Marsha Linehan, PhD. DBT Skills Trainers have been intensively trained by Behavioral Tech., LLC, in Seattle, WA.
DBT Skills Groups cover four main areas to help clients build a "life worth living": Distress Tolerance, Emotional Regulation, Interpersonal Effectiveness, and Mindfulness.

Are there parts of you that feel overwhelmed, overstimulated, disconnected and burnout? Is the reality of motherhood leaving you doubting yourself? Pregnancy and postpartum is such a transformative time and can also feel overwhelming without support. New moms and parents can often feel that there has been so much emphasis on taking care of baby, that they end up feeling that their own needs and wants don't matter. I am a mother myself and am passionate about working with those on their journey into and through both motherhood and parenthood.

TTRPGs take place in the physical world, where players gather around a table to interact. Groups are typically structured with a 5-minute check-in, 60 minutes of gameplay and 25 minutes for group processing.

My ideal client is a child or adolescent who is aware of the issues that are bothering them and want help. These are clients whose parents are comfortable with them seeing a therapist and are able to speak openly with them about their diagnoses. When I am asked how long I see a client, I do not give a definite time since I have learned that issues are challenged as they make the transition to new schools or jobs. I let parents know that I take a developmental approach to psychopathology. We may stop when symptoms decrease and their coping capacity increases. If they return it is not a sign of failure but different stresses.
Using material from John and Julie Gottman, the Mark Groves Podcast, and Marshall Rosenberg I have combined a path of self-exploration that takes into consideration the people we love and sometimes struggle with connecting. Through this course, you will gain insight on the way you show up in relationships, practical tools to use to come back to your truth, and how to be heard in your relationship. Together, with others who are just like you, you will explore some inner truths that will shed light on your future relationships.
