I incorporate CBT, DBT and ACT therapy.
What wild times we're in! Seems like we could all use a little support no matter who we are ! I know you have a vision of your best self or your best life that you want to be living. Right now there might be a gap between you and that reality. Maybe you've had some big changes blow up your life. Maybe you are deep in grief. Maybe you have never felt understood, or suffered unspeakable trauma. You have a book to write and don't know where to begin. Or an adult son to launch. Overwhelmed. Disorganized. Excited. Depressed. On a rollercoaster. Unable to decide. I'm here for you. I have skills, experience and energy for what you've got.

My approach eclectic, client-centered, and experiential, drawing from multiple therapeutic modalities including mindfulness & yoga, somatic therapies, polyvagal theory, attachment theory, Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy ( DBT).
Traumatic experiences can leave us feeling disempowered, dysregulated, and profoundly disconnected from our passions, our loved ones, and even ourselves. Inherently resilient and adaptable beings, we find ways to cope after a trauma - we mask our emotions, numb our pain, and we keep going. As a trauma therapist, my job is to help trauma survivors move beyond this state of coping and surviving to a place of lasting healing by supporting them in cultivating a sense of safety, making sense of their experience, and connecting to their essential selves.
