About
My focus with clients is centered on helping them develop skills that promote emotional regulation. This skill-building is achieved through a structured approach that incorporates the development of self-awareness, the application of cognitive-behavioral skills, and mindfulness meditation. Relying on evidence-based frameworks, I aim to provide my clients with a foundation of knowledge to help them understand the mechanisms behind their responses and how, with time and intention, they can be changed. My specialized training focuses on supporting those who suffer from anxiety, dissociation, and PTSD. I primarily operate from Richard Schwartz's Internal Family Systems framework (otherwise known as "IFS" or "parts work"). I have found this approach to be both impactful and highly effective for many. I also utilize Deb Dana's Polyvagal Theory (nervous-system-specific support & instruction) to help clients navigate their challenges and find relief.
