About
Life can be difficult to manage. I work with individuals, couples, and families. I am a down to earth and authentic person. My desire is to provide an empathetic and non-judgmental atmosphere where you can deal effectively with the challenges you are facing in your life. My hope is to facilitate change where YOU want it, in order to help YOU embrace a more satisfying existence. I work with those struggling with relational issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, LGBT, health/cancer, grief, divorce/separation, parenting issues, and mood disorders. I utilize several therapeutic approaches in order to best serve you. I'm trained in DBT, an evidenced based treatment. DBT can increase awareness through "mindfulness" (reduce racing thoughts), enhance interpersonal skills (setting healthy boundaries), increase a person's ability to control their emotions (stop acting out impulsively), and distress tolerance skills (when feeling like we've reached our limit). A trusting and safe therapeutic relationship is a primary element to success in therapy. I am passionate about my work, and am willing to meet you where ever you are in your life's journey. I hope to validate you, challenge you, empower you, and assist your striving towards happiness.
