My approach utilizes CBT, Mindfulness, and Solution Focused Therapy.
I believe everyone strives to live a happy and meaningful life, but when faced with adversity or setbacks it can often feel as though realizing that goal is impossible. Feelings of anxiety, depression, grief, anger, low self-esteem, and lack of purpose can negatively affect our thoughts and actions and shape inconsistent perceptions of ourselves and life. Together we will create a plan and goals to help you develop increased awareness, insight, and coping skills, so you may experience greater joy within yourself and relationships.

Whether your issues are related to anxiety, grief, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder or managing stressful interactions, I believe that positive change is possible regardless of your prior experiences. Understanding your point of view will assist us in the healing process and then together we can focus on the problems that are critical to you.

I tailor my approach to each individual, but I often use: CBT, Trauma-Focused CBT, solution focused therapy, motivational interviewing, Gottman method, and for children: play and art therapy.
Events in our life and our relationships can leave us feeling sad, depressed, angry, hopeless, overwhelmed, anxious, or lonely. When we finally realize enough is enough, it’s time to make a change. But how do we do that? It’s easy to feel lost and stuck on how to bring about change. I help adults, children, teens, couples, and families get unstuck and find a way forward in their life and relationships. If you’re ready to make a change, let’s talk.

My theoretical orientation tends to be, humanistic, client-centered and solution focused.
Life is a journey. I am not here to judge. I am here as a guide. I counsel individuals, couples, and teenagers in a safe, honest and "down-to-earth" manner. I work inside a comfortable private office providing traditional psychotherapy. For those clients that would like a more experiential approach, I also take therapy outside with Walk and Talk Therapy. Individual clients accompany me on a two-hour light hike/walk that combines movement, nature and psychotherapy. For those who are too busy to leave their home or office, I provide on-line counseling as well. I am eager to meet you and honored to help.

Have depression, fear, or anxiety been keeping you from living the kind of life you desire? Are you seeking to heal the effects of a past trauma, or change old behavior patterns that seem to be getting in your way? I have successfully helped individuals facing these challenges to experience a greater sense of peace and well-being, and to achieve their personal, relationship and professional goals. Clients often describe feeling a more positive sense of themselves and their life choices as a result of our work together.

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists
How does solution-focused therapy work?
The treatment works by helping a client notice which behaviors and thoughts have positive results on their lives and building a plan around how to maximise these strengths. Practitioners of solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) believe that individuals already have the experience, wisdom, and resilience to create change in their lives, but may need a guide to help them realise which changes to make and how to make them.
Is solution-focused brief therapy evidence-based?
Yes. Solution-focused brief therapy has been extensively studied, and researchers find strong evidence that it’s an effective treatment for many behavioral and psychological concerns. This may be due to the uplifting nature and practicality of the treatment, which allows patients to employ strategies to reach their goals that are incremental and achievable.
How long does solution-focused brief therapy last?
Solution-focused brief therapy, as the name implies, is brief. The timeline may vary from person to person, given the challenges they face and their situation in life, but treatment is typically complete within four to eight sessions. This therapy type is a pragmatic one: it’s concerned more with “how” problems can be addressed and improved than getting to the root of “why” they exist in the first place.
Is solution-focused brief therapy a type of cognitive behavioral therapy?
Solution-focused brief therapy is related to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)in that both are pragmatic approaches that deal less with gaining a full understanding of the cause of a mental health problem and more with creating plans for how to cope with these problems and improve an individual’s day-to-day life. They are distinct, however, in that SFBT emphasises building on strengths and resources, while CBT focuses on changing negative thoughts and behaviors.
