Therapist Overview
Intensively trained in DBT, my approach teaches coping skills and mindfulness strategies for regulating emotions such as anger and sadness, tolerating distress and dealing with stressful situations, and improving interpersonal skills and relationships. I combine cognitive behavioral therapy with an educational component that teaches coping or life skills. I help my clients with problem solving to make the changes they want to make while accepting themselves as they are. DBT is a very compassionate, non-judgemental type of therapy. I specialize in working with adults and adolescents 17 and over who are experiencing depression and anxiety, as well as problems with anger, self-destructive behavior, overeating, addictions and relationships. The path toward healing begins with compassionate awareness. Therapy provides a safe and nonjudgmental place to explore feelings and events that disrupt our sense of safety and wellness. If you want to learn new skills to apply to life, DBT incorporates mindfulness, skill building and therapy. I look forward to working together with you.
