About My Clients

Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. It can be isolating to struggle with your mental health. Being stuck in your own head makes it difficult to be present and enjoy life. Whether you're facing daily anxiety, harsh self-criticism, or a complicated relationship with your body, I offer a compassionate and structured space to explore, heal, and grow. I specialize in helping individuals build confidence, challenge negative thought patterns, and develop resiliency.

My Background and Approach

My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), two evidence-based modalities that empower clients to understand their thoughts, regulate emotions, and take meaningful action. Together, we’ll identify what’s holding you back and build practical tools to move forward with confidence. What does this look like? - A warm, nonjudgmental environment where your experiences are validated - Collaborative goal-setting tailored to your unique needs - Skills-based sessions focused on mindfulness, emotional regulation, and self-compassion - Practicing techniques to quiet your inner critical voice -Solution focused strategies to help you implement these skills outside of session to make lasting change Are you ready to get started?
