About My Clients

Motivated, insightful clients who are interested in taking their healing to the next level through evidence-based modalities and multi-dimensional layers of work. Interpersonal relationship issues, family trauma/chronic PTSD, and emotion dysregulation are all issues I am ready to help you navigate so that you can live well.

My Background and Approach

Intensively trained in Dialectical-Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness based approaches in both individual and group psychotherapies, and behavioral medicine/health psychology. I'm passionate about "whole health" person-centered care that supports multidimensional aspects of health/well-being important to each individual. With a deep appreciation for the interaction between mental and physical health, I seek to facilitate effective and meaningful cognitive and behavioral change across multiple life domains.
