I use an eclectic approach which means that I am trained in a variety of modalities ( CBT, EFT, NLP, EMDR, Gestalt, solution focus and reality therapy.
THE CHOICE...
One of my clients said that she wished that choosing a therapist was like finding a new puppy. You get a sense of the breeding, temperament and capability and then you know from a heartfelt connection that you have the right one. Here you must decide from an exhaustive list of similar sounding credentials. So what I want to offer is some background and then hopefully you can have the experience she wished for everyone.

We have all faced adversity, distress, anxiety or depression and during these times we can feel overwhelmed and alone.

I meet my clients where they are in the moment and help them manage their feelings and thoughts and provide overall emotional support.

I am trained in EFT and EMDR, as well as ERP, ACT, and CBT.
Feeling like you can't enjoy the present moment because you are stuck in your head? Lying awake at night going back through all the things you said today (or last year, or 10 years ago)? Maybe you've created multiple to-do lists and come up with plans and systems to make life easier - yet something is still keeping you stuck. Anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, and burnout can significantly impact the way your brain handles the stresses of day-to-day life. But there is hope – you don’t have to stay stuck. I'd love to talk to you about how you can begin to feel like yourself again.

We create a safe environment in which we work together to resolve challenges and mental health concerns.

Using a combination of psychotherapy, CBT and DBT skills, you’ll cultivate the power of self-love!.
Your relationships are exhausting, work is utter drudgery, and your life feels like a series of haphazard demands. You’re sick of people-pleasing, but you can’t seem to stop. Invisibility used to be your superpower (secretly, you like that nobody notices your mistakes), but it feels like you have no purpose in your life anymore. You’ve stopped setting goals because let’s face it, you probably won’t meet them anyway. That inner critic is holding you hostage. You don’t even want to try. You’re tired of trying to make new friends and speak up for yourself. Feeling completely defeated, you’re on the verge of giving up altogether.

My role as a therapist is to help individuals identify and understand their fundamental instinctive reaction to their environment (people, places & things), through mindful awareness of emotions (mood & affect), thoughts (beliefs, images & memories), behaviors (what you say & do), and physiological factors (how your body responds). Understanding this natural-occurring process of how individuals interact within their environment lays the groundwork in creating life-long change and personal transformation.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists
How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?
Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.
When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.
How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.
Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
