New clients continue care with this provider

My clients tend to be people who want to feel more in control of their emotions, more effective at getting what they want, less stuck, more flexible, more connected and really just more at peace. They seek relief from patterns - sometimes chronic and severe, sometimes only subtly troublesome - of painful emotions, negative self-talk and thoughts, rumination, relationship instability and self sabotaging behaviors.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

We'll go over what's bringing you in as well as other relevant history so I can develop a treatment plan.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I guess probably validation, empathy, empowerment and also skill building.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

Many of my clients tend to have had very painful formative or recent experiences of invalidation that have been difficult or confusing. Adults and adolescents struggling with mental health issues to the point where it impacts their quality of life.

My treatment methods

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I am passionate about using evidence-based therapy and inspired by witnessing the transformation and growth possible through both behavioral and psychodynamic modalities. I am intensively trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and utilize a DBT framework in most of my sessions.
