Bio

I value having an authentic connection in therapy. My goal is to understand precisely what clients want to work on and help them reach their goals. I am actively involved in the dialogue of the session and like to provide validation, education, and options for responding to problems.

I appreciate the investment people can make into knowing themselves, addressing problems related to their internal experiences, and wanting to have healthier relationships. Therapy is a powerful tool for this.

I have specialized in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy treating clients with emotion dysregulation disorders. I have worked to help clients transition from an inpatient mental health admission to their outpatient treatment. I have experience working with older adults and adults with chronic illness and cognitive disorders.
