I work with people with bipolar disorder to manage their overall treatment, modulate emotions, and create a consistent structure and schedule. I'm a compassionate and culturally-competent therapist and counselor, with an interest in working with individuals and couples including on all kinds of issues. I believe we can all experience helping people move towards a better and healthier life. I'm trained in DBT, CBT, compassion focused therapy and couples work, and I especially enjoy working with people bringing issues concerning race, culture, religion and spirituality. I offer a free 15-minute consultation with anyone interested in working with me, and I look forward to speaking with you about what you want to accomplish in therapy.

Who wants to feel better?
You, or else you wouldn't be looking at psychotherapists websites. But wait, there's more...maybe you're not sure you can feel better. Maybe you've never been to a psychotherapist before & this is all new to you or was something that "other people" did.
our therapists provide a supportive space to explore mood fluctuations, develop coping mechanisms, and establish routines that contribute to a balanced lifestyle.
Psychotherapy can help children, teens, and adults who struggle with bipolar disorder to minimize symptoms and unwanted behaviors through lifestyle changes; improved coping skills, frustration tolerance, & interpersonal skills; and by strengthening social and family bonds. When needed, therapy also assists in the treatment of substance abuse problems common among those with bipolar disorder.
The therapeutic relationship that cultivates self-compassion, trust and openness lends to a safe space for those struggling with mood disorders, including biopolar disorder.
