About

Taking the first initial step into therapy can be an intimidating one. I believe in creating a safe environment to foster growth, change and healing, which is beneficial in the therapeutic process. I also believe in the approach of building a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust, transparency, and understanding. I believe in the importance of recognizing how our thoughts impact our emotions and behaviors . In my work I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, Dialectical behavior therapy and Acceptance commitment therapy. I am grateful and honored to help clients feel the the benefits of therapy. I work with ages 8 to midlife and have experience with OCD, anxiety, LGBTQIA+, anxiety related disorders such as GAD, somatic symptoms with illness, depression, low mood, personality disorders, co -occurring disorders, ADHD, acceptance/trauma, eating disorders. I use CBT, DBT, ACT, I cam currently available for telehealth appointments.
