Please note: I can't take insurance but I have a sliding scale - we will figure something out! - - Everyone has their own strengths and needs, children and adults alike. Sometimes the needs are overwhelming and the strengths are hard to find. Those are times when it helps to have someone who will listen, understand, support, validate, encourage, and help. I believe it's important to honor all emotions as valid and all needs as real. I also believe those needs don't have to define who you are, and that recognizing and accepting something as real - a loss, a child's behaviors - opens the way to start making positive changes.

I pull from CBT, DBT, MI and ACT approaches in my work with clients.
Life is a journey, and at times, a challenging one. Whether it's something from the past, in the present, or a potential future that is giving us pause, there are many times in our lives that we may feel we can benefit from some additional support. As a provider, my background is primarily in working with those impacted by Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, and relationship traumas. I also have a passion for working with queer and trans (LGBTQIA+) adults. The uniting thread through my passion for the work has been helping people uplift and embrace their true selves.

As an expert providing evidence-based treatments Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy ( DBT), I help people move towards a life where anxiety and emotional pain no longer handcuffs you and prevents you from having relationships, experiences, and emotional well-being.
Anxiety and emotional anguish are creeping into more and more areas of your life, and even worse you blame yourself for not being able to "just get better already." Maybe you avoid people that are important to you, activities you used to enjoy, and experiences you want to have. Tricks you previously used to white knuckle through the day aren’t working anymore, and even when they do they leave you exhausted, isolated and lonely. You find yourself ruminating on past failures or painful traumas, or preoccupied with fear of the future. It feels like there is no hope, because you've been trying so hard and for so long.
