Through gentle exploration and skill building, you will be guided to a place of understanding, acceptance, and compassion for where you are in your journey and how you got here. I like to use CBT, DBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based interventions.

I strongly believe in using methods that have been shown in empirical research as helpful and effective. Because of that, my approach is interactive--I'm not just here to listen. My approach is person-centered, multicultural, and relatable.

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which is evidence-based, and very effective in treating anxiety, panic, insomnia, and many other issues. I teach concrete skills and assign homework to help you improve as fast as possible.

I don't use the same approach for each person. Each person needs something different and I will make sure I am only using approaches that feel comfortable for the client. However, I often use approaches like CBT, DBT, meditation, and holistic tools.
