Nice to meet you
I believe in the power of validation while gently encouraging change, creating a safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment. I use evidence-based approaches such as DBT, ACT, and EMDR along with person-centered therapy to meet clients where they are while fostering both acceptance and growth. I work with those experiencing painful emotions, dysregulating thoughts, and ineffective behaviors, and I specialize in ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, and emotion dysregulation.
