When we're at our best, stepping out of our comfort zones can be daunting; when we're feeling vulnerable, it can seem nearly impossible. No matter what prompted you to take this first step, I'd like to be t...

Often, these struggles are a result of past traumatic events that have shaped how the brain perceives the world. Other times, these struggles may trace back to unhelpful messaging from outside sources, which can result in learned behaviors, patterns, and ways of thinking that p...

In my practice, I use mindfulness techniques as foundational tools to help clients tune into the present moment and simply notice without judgment.

My primary treatment modality is Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and I also have extensive experience providing titrate...
