I take a solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral approach to facilitating change that is informed by ACT and DBT.
If you are finding that worries, fears, feeling too little or feeling too much are keeping you from living the life you want help is available. Whether it's adjusting to big changes in your life, dealing with fears and worries that seem like they have always been there, or struggling to make and keep relationships help is available. Most of us get stuck at some point in our life and need someone to support and guide us to get back on track.

In my practice, I emphasize both change and acceptance, seeking to help you build the life you want to be living. Sometimes when individuals are in therapy, they begin to understand the causes of the problems they are experiencing while continuing to feel stuck. I focus on balancing an understanding of these external influences while supporting you with specific tools to help you to react differently. Often this work begins by focusing on dismantling the disproportionate levels of guilt individuals have internalized which blocks their ability to change.
