What's My Approach to Therapy?

Many people come to therapy wanting real tools, not vague encouragement and clichés about living your best life. Therapy with me is straightforward and practical, focused on helping you change the habits and thinking patterns that shape your emotions and relationships. Our work together goes a lot further than just, "How was your week?," and, "You're doing your best!" My style is active, collaborative, and focused on giving you effective strategies rather than just talking in circles. Whether you want therapy to be free-flowing, highly structured and directive, or anything in between, I'm ready to match you.

You may be stuck in cycles that strain your relationships, overwhelm your emotions, or make it hard to feel steady and stable. I help you develop clear, usable skills to break out of those cycles and create something healthier. You’ll learn how to replace harmful and limiting beliefs about yourself, change the mood patterns and emotional responses that make daily life harder, and use tools that support healthy attachment and fulfilling partnerships.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps you build constructive ways of thinking by working directly with the deeper beliefs underneath your day-to-day thoughts so your feelings, confidence, and decision-making become easier to manage.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy helps you handle strong emotions without losing your footing, improve mental focus, make better and more intentional decisions, lift your overall mood, and stay centered when life gets overwhelming.

Gottman Couples Therapy helps you handle conflict in ways that keep both partners steady and connected, move past long stuck disagreements, rebuild trust and affection, get to know each other more in-depth, and strengthen the daily habits that help a relationship thrive.

My Practice & Services

I’m experienced and competent in working with people of diverse backgrounds including LGBTQ+, straight individuals and couples, poly and open relationships, kink-informed, and neurodivergent communities.

I currently accept Kaiser, Aetna, UMR, and UnitedHealthcare for individual and couples sessions. If you have any other insurance plans, I offer the standard superbills for out-of-network claims as well as Thrizer which submits claims for you, speeds up reimbursement, and tracks everything automatically.

I only meet virtually online or over the phone. I do not currently offer any in-person therapy.
