My go-to therapies are ACT, CBT, ERP, and EMDR.
Starting to see a new therapist — or your very first therapist — can be a confusing, daunting process. I get how uncomfortable it feels to be vulnerable with someone you don’t know yet, and I’m committed to honoring the bravery it takes to do that. I’m all about approaching my clients from an accepting, compassionate, and nonjudgmental place. At the same time, I believe truly caring about my clients means helping them see where change is necessary to live more fulfilling, values-driven lives.

You deserve therapy. A space dedicated to you and your growth. Sometimes we find ourselves not feeling like anything is wrong, but more so feeling like nothing is really right. We feel stuck, isolated and like no matter how hard we try we aren't living the life we imagined. If that is you, I would love to work with you. My favorite piece of therapy is unsticking ourselves from our emotions and experiences, learning how to live in the here and now, and beginning to thrive, not just survive in our lives.

If there is no trust, acceptance, authenticity, and mutual respect in the relationship, there can be no therapeutic change! Therefore, in my practice I strive to create a nonjudgmental, open, and supportive environment for my clients.

I also assist clients in identifying values and goals with ACT.
I love working with both individuals and couples! I believe everyone deserves to be happy and comfortable in mind, body, and relationships. Unfortunately, anxiety, stress, self-doubt, depression, and misunderstandings can knock you out of life’s driver’s seat. In my couples counseling work, I use EFT and the Gottman method to assist partners in healing patterns of miscommunication and disconnection. Couples learn to express their deepest feelings, respond rather than re act, and make successful bids for connection.

I am trained in a variety of evidence-based practices, including CBT, DBT, ACT, and evidence-based methods of treating suicidality at an outpatient level.
Welcome! I feel honored to work with children, teens, and young adults who are going through some of the most difficult times of their lives. I specialize in therapy for suicidality and nonsuicidal self-injury. People engage in self-injury and experience suicidality for a variety of reasons, but some of the commonalities tend to be dislike of yourself, feeling isolated, and feeling that your psychological pain is unbearable and unsolvable. I work with clients to find ways to feel hope again, start to like themselves, and find alternative ways to cope.
