I specialize working with individuals struggling with Bipolar Disorders (I & II), Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), Persistent Depressive Disorder (PDD) and Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).
I utilize DBT (dialectical behavior therapy) informed skills to work with individuals looking to enhance their emotion regulation and focus on boundary setting with others and self, crisis management skills, and mindfulness techniques.
Whether you are graduating from college ready to take on the job market, going through a difficult divorce or are making a big life change, I am ready to work with you to get your counseling goals met.
By applying DBT skills and CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) techniques, I hope to reduce the emotional suffering caused by anxiety and/or panic attacks and symptoms.
I work with those struggling with alcohol or substance use or those that are struggling navigating the relationship of a loved one with alcohol or substance use using DBT informed skills, CBT counseling techniques, and mindfulness.
