My commitment is for DBT and mindfulness approaches to be available and accessible for diverse communities and for clinicians to develop and grow in their capacities to deliver trauma-informed services and to emotionally sustain themselves through the rigors of community service. I am presenting  a four-class series in July oriented for white people to bring mindfulness practice to bear on privilege and racism in service of becoming an effective ally for people of color. 

Trainings &

Workshops

I have provided DBT workshops in 30+ states through PESI.  I am also available to conduct site-based training and capacity-building appropriate to your site’s needs.

Whether conducting a site-based or regional training or leading a DBT or mindfulness group, my efforts focus on inspiring diverse clients, practitioners, and community members to integrate approaches and skills that are meaningful and transformative
