Dialectical Behavior Therapy — practical skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and building healthier relationships. The foundation of nearly all my work.

DBT-based counseling for anxiety, panic, chronic stress, and worry that won't turn off. Practical nervous system tools you can use in real life.

Safe, paced support for PTSD, complex trauma, childhood abuse, and adverse experiences. You set the pace — healing never has to be forced.

Adolescent counseling for anxiety, identity, trauma, academic stress, and life transitions. A space where teens can actually be honest about what's going on.

Christian faith thoughtfully integrated into therapy — for clients who want it. All beliefs warmly welcomed; faith integration is always client-led and optional.

The science of what makes life worth living — building joy, meaning, and resilience alongside healing. The philosophy behind "have a smile on your face and a song in your heart."
