About
My therapeutic focus is in helping children/teens who struggle with anxiety, depression, disordered eating, self-harm and difficulty with emotion regulation. I specialize in DBT which is a therapy approach that provides coping skills and strategies that teens and their parents can use to create a happier and healthier life. I have been providing DBT therapy and leading DBT groups for over 15 years. Additionally, I have extensive experience and training in eating disorders and provide Family Based Therapy. In working with teens and children, I believe it's important that parents are involved appropriately in the treatment process. After gaining an in-depth understanding of the problems being presented, we will then develop a plan that focuses on solutions. I utilize therapy approaches that are supported by research to be effective including Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Family Based Treatment/Maudsley for eating disorders. Taking the first step to find a therapist can be a daunting process. It takes courage to seek support for yourself or a family member. If I can be of any help in this process, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
