My approach
I specialize in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), incorporating Mindfulness, Stoic philosophy, and therapeutic tools, to help you build the personal strength and resilience to surf life’s waves.
In my 25 years in practice, I’ve found DBT to be the most effective approach for treating psychological distres,s including trauma, anxiety, grief, emotion regulation issues, and interpersonal issues.
Why DBT might be right for you.
Whether you're dealing with big life changes, stress, or anxiety, or just want better tools to handle everyday challenges, DBT provides practical skills to help you manage emotions, communicate effectively, and move through life with more confidence.
