Qualifications and Experience:
Treatment Philosophy: Life can be hard as it is currently being lived. Sometimes our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors get so intense that we don't know how to effectively navigate life. I am an intensively trained DBT therapist through Behavioral Tech, LLC. I truly believe that learning a new set of effective and healthy coping skills can and will create a life worth living. In therapy we will utilize mindfulness, cognitive, and behavioral skills to help steer you toward your goals for therapy. I believe in creating a therapeutic environment where we can create a balance of acceptance and change in your life. |
