Using a strength-based approach with CBT and DBT, I’m neurodiversity and kink-affirming, fostering resilience in a supportive environment.
Have you ever found yourself striving for approval, feeling like you have to be perfect to be accepted? No matter what you achieve, does a voice still tell you it’s not enough? Do you feel anxious, wondering if you're too much for others or if you'll never measure up? Do you crave deep connection but struggle to feel close or connected to your desires? Beneath it all, do you long to be yourself, feel confident, and let go of the fears holding you back? A therapist helps by fostering self-acceptance, reducing anxiety, and building authentic connections.

I provide services to individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and PTSD. I acknowledge each person's needs and am able to modify approaches to assist them in meeting their goals. These goals can be modest in approach from the beginning and once someone is ready, we can dig in deeper to the healing process or if someone prefers, we can take an assertive and swift approach to addressing goals. Treatment may vary as I am eclectic in approach. My clients will have the opportunity to work with therapy animals, have nature based experiences, integrate art or relax indoors.

My ideal client is someone who has an idea of where they want to be but needs a little help to get there. I believe that the therapeutic journey is about understanding a person's life experience in order to help them reach their full potential. Developing a trusting relationship is a very important aspect in creating change. And whether these changes are small or large in scale, they can have a profound impact on someone's life. I like to be able to support and guide clients as they work on those changes.

Ever feel like no one understands what you're going through? Is it hard to find someone who "just gets it"? Stress, anxiety, and sadness have a way of making life harder to manage, and the reality is that many of our friends and family members aren't capable of supporting us because of their own unresolved issues. The good news is, you no longer have to push through difficult times alone.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists
Who is DBT for?
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is designed for people who experience extreme emotional suffering because they lack the skills of emotion regulation and distress tolerance. The basic affliction can underlie a wide range of conditions, from borderline and other personality disorders to PTSD and treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. The therapy is helpful to those whose emotional reactivity is so intense it is disruptive to everyday functioning and leads to frequent crises.
Why do people need DBT?
The ability to regulate emotions is a core psychological skill that enables people to function in life and pay attention to the world outside themselves; it is consistently associated with well-being. DBT is designed to help people learn how to manage and regulate their emotions. Originally developed to treat people with borderline personality disorder whose extreme emotional suffering led to self-harming behavior and suicide attempts, the therapy is now applied to other conditions involving emotion dysregulation, particularly when other treatments have failed.
What happens in DBT?
Individuals meet weekly with their therapist to discuss their experiences relating to moods, behavior, and skills. Using checklists they maintain, they review emotional experiences and positive practices they engage in. The diaries help individuals discern what led up to a specific problem encountered, this is followed by discussion of the consequences of their actions. In addition, individuals may meet in class-like small groups to learn skills such as mindfulness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
How long does DBT last?
Because it is intended to establish long-lasting behavioral change among those with persistent problems, DBT is designed to last six months to a year. DBT includes both weekly sessions of individual therapy and weekly skills-training sessions conducted in small groups. Studies of DBT have documented improvement within a year of treatment, particularly in controlling self-harmful behavior; nevertheless, individuals may require therapy for several years.
