Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Sensorimotor Arousal Regulation Treatment (SMART), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT,) TBRI

I am looking forward to connecting! I have spent the last 6 years working with those afflicted by PTSD, RAD, depression and anxiety. I've worked in a psychiatric residential treatment facility working with youth and their families towards reunification. I incorporate Trust Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), somatic therapies such as Sensorimotor Arousal Regulation Treatment (SMART) in conjunction with more traditional talk-therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Solution Focused Therapy. My goal is to help you be the best version of yourself and working collaboratively to help you achieve your goals and be your authentic self.
