My Approach
I take a flexible, integrative approach to therapy, drawing from both person-centered therapy and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). This allows me to tailor our work together to your needs, goals, and experiences.
Person-Centered Therapy
Person-centered therapy is built on genuine human connection. Rather than a therapist acting as a blank slate, I show up as my authentic self so you feel safe to do the same.
In this approach, you are the expert on your own life, while I offer empathy, honesty, and a supportive, judgment-free space to help you explore your experiences, connect with your strengths, and move toward meaningful growth.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supports you in navigating intense emotions, reducing stress, and strengthening relationships through practical, skills-based tools.
DBT balances self-acceptance with meaningful change, offering a structured and supportive space to build mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills—helping you face life’s challenges with greater balance, confidence, and authenticity.
