About

I'm a part the Montana DBT Associates group practice and specialize in working with adults. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is an evidence-based therapy and is widely considered to be the gold standard treatment for individuals who experience intense and unstable emotions, and who are struggling with suicide and self-harm. DBT helps individuals find the middle ground between extremes and opposites and increases their skills in mindfulness, emotion regulation, relationships, communication, and tolerating intense emotions. I work with clients individually and also in groups (where clients learn the previously mentioned skills in a class-like setting). Sometimes, when behaviors you're trying to change are rooted in trauma, we will explore using modalities like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and TRM (Trauma Resiliency Model) to decrease symptoms.
