Therapist Overview

When dealing with ‘softer’ sciences surrounding the mental health field, the best course of treatment is often difficult to ascertain. I strive to provide a collaborative, empirical, transparent process which adopts the best evidence based approaches to your unique, personal treatment needs. I am looking forward to rolling up my sleeves and working with you! I specialize in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy with people that may have difficulties controlling their emotions and impulses and therefore may find it hard to keep relationships. Experiencing feelings of emptiness, problems coping with abandonment, a rapidly changing view of others, quick changes in mood and self harm are not uncommon.
