I use evidenced-based practices to help you learn skills, accept life on it's own terms, and make committed decisions towards a life of value and meaning.

​​​​I am intensively trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and a Certified DBT Clinician by the Linehan Board of Certification. DBT is an evidence-based treatment for teens and adults who have difficulties managing emotions and behaviors. I am also intensively trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy. All of these modalities are evidenced-based and are collaborative with the client in finding the best route for you to meet your goals. I also provide parent coaching using these modalities. I am trained in SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions). This is a parent-only intervention that helps parents identify and modify accommodations they've made for their child/teen/adult kid that have an anxiety disorder or OCD. The great part of this intervention is that the kid isn't involved in the treatment or even have to agree to it! This is all parent based yet it has a profound impact on how the child/teen/adult kid manages their own anxiety. Please reach out for more info on anything I've described here!
