I provide a comfortable, nonjudgmental, & supportive space for womxn in their 20-40's to learn skills to manage general/social anxiety and depression by building self-worth, practicing new habits and boundaries, and creating a meaningful life. I also enjoy helping animal care professionals (veterinarians, vet techs, vetmed students, wildlife rehabilitators, etc) combat burnout, compassion fatigue, vicarious trauma, and depression.
I incorporate evidenced-based techniques of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), existential counseling, and mindfulness skills from a secular perspective.

Treatment Approach
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Combines CBT with mindfulness to help regulate emotions, tolerate stress, and build stronger relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now used more broadly.
- Equine-Assisted Therapy (Horse Therapy) Involves interactions with horses to support emotional awareness and growth. It can build trust, confidence, and calmness.
- Existential / Humanistic Therapy Encourages people to explore meaning, freedom, and authenticity in their lives. It focuses on personal growth and living in alignment with one’s values.
- Experiential Therapy Involves hands-on activities to bring emotions into the present moment. It helps clients process feelings more deeply than through conversation alone.
- Person-Centered Therapy (Rogerian) Emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity. It provides a safe space for self-discovery and growth.
- Psychoeducational Therapy Provides education and coping tools about mental health conditions. It empowers clients with knowledge and practical skills.
