Treatment approach
My approach is collaborative and grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your own life. I draw from DBT, CBT, and ACT, as well as attachment and trauma based theory, but always tailor my approach to what fits best for you.

Humor, warmth, and no judgment are expected.
Interests & hobbies
Outside of work I am an avid reader, especially of historical novels. I enjoy spending time with my family as well as my rescue dogs.
