I am very passionate and devoted to helping adults, adolescents and families find a peaceful and empowering path to a greater quality of life. I am intensively trained in Dialectical Behavior and Trauma Therapy. The use of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is to strike a balance between validation (acceptance) of who you are, your challenges and the benefits of working towards change in “creating a life worth living”. I believe in treating the whole person (mind, body, soul) and the importance of understanding the messages we receive from our body, function of emotions and thoughts.
Intensively Trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy; DBT Prolonged Exposure Trauma Protocol; Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy; Yoga Therapy; Mindfulness; Crisis Counseling with high risk behaviors such as, self-harm and suicidal ideation; Client-Centered
