I am a body-centered therapist who specializes in working with trauma and emotion instability/intensity—this includes interpersonal relationships, depression, anger & anxiety. With this approach, we can get to a deeper understanding of diagnosis like Bipolar, Borderline Personality Disorder, and adult ADHD. Therapy is a two-pong approach: the skills & tools to get you through the day-to-day; and psychodynamic work of getting to the root of the issues (trauma-informed lens). I combine DBT/CBT skills and tools, with EMDR and tenants of IFS to stabilize symptoms, make way for healing, and a deeper understanding & connection to self.

Deciding to go to therapy can be challenging. The idea of having to open up to a stranger can be scary but I hope I can ease some of those fears by providing a safe space.

I help my client understand how their past relationships have impacted them and contribute to their suffering. My goal is to help clients build better relationships with themselves and others.
