I help people get past feeling stuck and overwhelmed, set healthy boundaries, and learn to practice self-care so they can create more balanced and rewarding lives. I specialize in working with people dealing with depression, stress and overwhelm, and feeling controlled and overwhelmed by their emotions. As one myself, I also have insight and understanding treating Global Nomads, Third Culture Kids, Expats, and people who deal with issues relating to frequent moves and relocations and living among multiple cultures. My approach integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness skills, strengths-based positive psychology, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills (DBT), and Radically Open Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills (RO-DBT). Therapy goals can range from decreasing and managing mood symptoms, developing self-compassion and self-worth, increasing self-care, and building healthy relationships to improving overall wellbeing and quality of life and learning to live with mindfulness. I will help you get unstuck and find your flow! I focus on developing strengths, identifying values, decreasing and managing mood symptoms, developing self-compassion and self-worth, increasing self-care, learning to live with mindfulness, and increasing authenticity. I enjoy using creative expression, mindfulness exercises, and guided visualization practices. I value diversity and inclusivity. I continue personal work to become more aware of my privilege and internalized racism and prejudices. I aim to provide a safe, welcoming space for all people regardless of race, ancestry (national origin) gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, marital status, religious or spiritual beliefs, age, disability, body size, etc.
