About this provider

Clients I Work With

While I have a special place in my heart for working with bipolar disorders, I also regularly work with dissociation, trauma, ADHD, anxiety (panic, fears, phobias, and persistent worries), depression, and life transitions. If your experience includes one, or several, of these, we’ll tailor treatment to your specific needs and values.

Approach

I use TEAM‑CBT, an evidence‑based approach designed to help you get better faster. I will also incorporate DBT and Motivational Interviewing when customizing treatment plans. Together, we’ll identify what’s getting in the way, build practical skills for mood and emotion regulation, and strengthen self‑confidence. You’ll leave sessions with tools you can use right away in your daily life, and many clients notice real improvement within just a few sessions.

Beliefs & Lived Experience

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you’re worried it means something is “wrong” with you. When I was first going to counseling, these were feelings and thoughts I was experiencing. Many people feel nervous, ashamed, or unsure about asking for help. By utilizing effective treatment with identifiable results, I offer a safe, respectful space where you can feel understood, supported, and confident as you make meaningful changes. Therapy works best when we collaborate. If you’re willing to lean into discomfort and try new strategies, I’ll match your effort with clear guidance, compassion, and structured support. Between sessions, I’ll offer simple, personalized homework so you can practice skills and see measurable progress.
