Philosophy of care

"I believe each patient is the expert of their own story, and it is my job to understand what is encapsulated in the pages that have come before, while also working collaboratively with them to write the plan for what is to come. I help patients examine their thoughts and behaviors, and teach them to manage challenging situations through emotion regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness, as well as how to integrate mindfulness practices to find calm as they navigate the challenges of daily life on their path to meeting their long-term goals."
