I’m experienced in cognitive-behavioral therapy, accceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and Adlerian therapy, and often integrate techniques from other styles when it matches the needs of a client. In this way, clients can get therapy that is both evidence-based and customized, and they have a voice in their treatment. Every style of therapy has a set of values behind it, and that can also affect the treatment we choose.

I’m also competent in some techniques that are specific to certain disorders, such as interpersonal and social rhythm therapy for bipolar disorder.

I welcome clients of every race, sexual and gender orientation, and disability status. People with neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism or ADD/ADHD are welcome here, as are people with physical and intellectual disabilities.

I write about mental health issues (obviously), including talk therapy, medication, books, bullying, social aspects, and public policy, but mostly my own experiences with bipolar 2.
