My private practice has been established for over 30 years and focuses on the unique needs of every adult, child and family that I see. Therapy is about helping you understand yourself better, solve problems that have effected your relationships and work and to help enhance your life in many ways.  

My hope and intent is for you to feel heard, seen, supported and hopeful about you and your circumstances. Van Gogh said it best, "I feel there is nothing more truly artistic than loving people." Our creative collaboration will equip you in getting your needs met in healthy ways.  

Evaluation and treatment of all major mental and emotional disorders, with focused expertise in: depression, anxiety, traumatic stress, dissociative disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), sexual trauma victims, marital and relationship issues, educational and executive coaching.  

We work with clients who express issues or concerns with Borderline Personality Disorder.  

In approaching this particular disorder, psychodynamic therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy are effecting in re-orienting the client's attitudes and behavior towards other people.  

Many clinicians often shy away from patients who have been diagnosed with or who are suspected to have a diagnosis of BPD. Our practice is just the opposite. Our skills and experience in helping manage the regulation difficulties and identity struggles that come with a BPD diagnosis can make a great deal of difference in your long term functioning.  

I enjoy working with borderline personality disorder and find that the emotion based tools work the most as I focus on helping lead the client through a deeper integration of self, helping them understand their personality in totality with love and acceptance.  

I view BPD- symptoms as being the result of untreated complex trauma, often stemming from childhood trauma. I treat BPD using EMDR and parts work/IFS to support internal processing and healing.  

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) can be a challenging and complex condition to navigate.

By utilizing evidence-based techniques such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other therapies that incorporate mindfulness and emotion regulation techniques we can work together to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

We will work together to develop a better understanding of yourself and to improve your interpersonal relationships. My ultimate goal is to empower you to live a more fulfilling life and to help you build a brighter, more stable future for yourself.
