I have extensive experience in mental health treatment with children and adolescents. My ideal therapeutic practice is diverse and includes individuals and families in all stages of life. I am passionate about working with individuals experiencing significant emotional and/or psychological distress. Clients who struggle to regulate their emotions may do so because of difficult life transitions, developmental processing difficulties, or relational and environmental factors. Whether acute crisis or longstanding circumstances, I embrace non-judgmental collaborative in creating positive change. I am certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), an evidence-based approach aimed at improving self-awareness and the ability to tolerate painful emotions. DBT is delivered in its totality at Open Door. While parts of DBT by itself are beneficial, I value DBT as a comprehensive model, which includes individual sessions, group skills training, and phone coaching interventions. I have a foundation in Systems Therapy, which has provided me with an increased awareness of the impact of one's environment, including family, peers, school/workplace, and the community on the healing process.
