CBT is a highly effective, evidence-based approach that helps individuals identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. By focusing on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and actions, CBT empowers clients to develop practical coping strategies and healthier ways of thinking. It's commonly used to treat anxiety, depression, stress, and a wide range of emotional challenges. CBT is goal-oriented, collaborative, and tailored to each person's unique needs, making it a flexible and supportive path to lasting change.

ACT is a modern, evidence-based therapy that helps individuals create a rich and meaningful life by learning to accept what’s out of their control and commit to actions that align with their values. Instead of trying to eliminate difficult thoughts or feelings, ACT teaches mindfulness skills to stay present and build psychological flexibility. It’s especially helpful for managing anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions, offering a compassionate, values-driven path to personal growth and well-being.

DBT is a structured, evidence-based therapy designed to help individuals manage intense emotions, improve relationships, and develop healthy coping strategies. Originally developed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now widely used to support people struggling with emotion regulation, self-harm, anxiety, depression, and more. DBT combines acceptance and change through skills training in mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness, offering a supportive and empowering approach to building a more balanced life.

EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps individuals heal from traumatic experiences and distressing memories. It works by using bilateral stimulation—often through guided eye movements—to help the brain process and reframe painful events. EMDR doesn’t require talking in detail about the trauma and can bring relief more quickly than traditional talk therapies. It's especially effective for PTSD, anxiety, and other trauma-related challenges, helping clients move forward with greater clarity, resilience, and peace of mind.

I believe that therapy should honor the unique cultural identities, backgrounds, and lived experiences of each individual. My approach is rooted in cultural humility, openness, and respect, creating a safe space where all voices are heard and valued. I take the time to understand how culture, race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and other identities shape your experiences, challenges, and strengths. Together, we work in a collaborative, affirming way that recognizes and celebrates your whole self—because healing is most powerful when it embraces who you truly are.

Psychedelic-assisted therapy is an emerging, evidence-informed approach that combines the therapeutic potential of psychedelic substances with the support of a trained therapist. In a safe, structured setting, this therapy can help individuals access deeper emotional insights, process trauma, and explore new perspectives on mental health challenges. Grounded in preparation, guided sessions, and integration work, psychedelic therapy supports lasting personal growth and healing. It is especially promising for conditions such as depression, PTSD, anxiety, and existential distress.

Self-compassion is the practice of treating yourself with the same kindness, understanding, and care that you would offer a loved one. In therapy, we explore how to let go of harsh self-judgment and replace it with a more supportive inner voice. By acknowledging your struggles with empathy rather than criticism, self-compassion can help reduce anxiety, depression, and shame—while building emotional resilience and a deeper sense of self-worth. It’s not about avoiding responsibility, but about healing through acceptance and kindness.

Mindfulness is the practice of bringing gentle, non-judgmental awareness to the present moment. In therapy, mindfulness helps you tune into your thoughts, feelings, and body sensations with curiosity and compassion—rather than criticism or avoidance. This simple yet powerful approach can reduce stress, improve emotional regulation, and enhance overall well-being. Whether you're coping with anxiety, depression, or everyday life challenges, mindfulness offers a grounded path to clarity, calm, and deeper self-awareness.
