You may be feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety - whether it’s from external demands or internal struggles. Maybe it's social anxiety, "a life transition," or healing from trauma. Or maybe it's something more general, like you want to feel more "in control" of your emotions…and your life. I can help. Together, we’ll uncover the roots of your challenges, empowering you to move forward - with skill and confidence. I use “treatments that work” (CBT, DBT, mindfulness, etc). But we’ll find what works for YOU. Lastly, I don’t just want you to just “feel better.” I want you to live your best life. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

Life is beautiful, and can also be challenging at times. Sometimes we hit barriers in our lives that prevent us from moving forward and getting to where we really want to be. As a licensed therapist I can help you explore these barriers and collaboratively find ways to overcome them.

My philosophy on therapy comes from Marsha Linehan - Everyone is doing the best they can at any given moment. And my role is to help people identify the ways in which they can improve managing their emotions, thoughts, and actions. I use a combination of CBT, DBT, MBT (Mentalization Based Therapy), and Motivational Interviewing. I have also helped clients with OCD use outpatient exposure therapy for their compulsions and intrusive thoughts. The clients who will benefit the most are adolescents and adults whom are ready to look into and change ineffective patterns so they can live their best lives.

Words are our most powerful tool in expressing ourselves. It can be liberating and insightful. I can guide you to expressing your most inner thoughts and feelings, a path to exploring, understanding and gaining greater insight into ourselves. It can be difficult to find the time and energy to confront the things that make us unhappy, or to simply explore who we are and how we came to be that way. You may feel "stuck" in certain patterns of relationships, and wish that you were more content. You may want to have someone outside of your experiences to help give you perspective on these issues, but worry about finding the right person
