I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and an interpersonal approach.
Oftentimes in life we find ourselves stuck and uncertain how to move forward. Whether it's anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, difficulties with a life transition, or another issue, I aim to help each person I work with identify what's holding them back and explore ways to generate momentum toward a more fulfilling life. I work with adults of diverse cultural identities in addressing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, grief, OCD, trauma, career concerns, substance abuse, depression, stress, relationship problems, bipolar disorders, and ADHD. I also offer psychological testing and assessment.

My work is rooted in mental wellness, built from a trauma informed integrative model & infused with evidenced based practices such as CBT, ACT & Mindfulness.
I often hear my clients say, “I wish I had started therapy sooner!” That doesn’t have to be you. Is therapy hard at times? Absolutely! It’s also an extremely rewarding personal growth opportunity that many define as “Life-Changing.” For over a decade, I’ve helped clients thrive personally & professionally as they learn to heal/manage: 1) Mental Health 2) Self-Confidence 3) Imposter Syndrome and 4) Relationships. Through experience gained in the US & abroad, I’ve developed a therapeutic style described as empowering, collaborative & interactive. I truly believe each client is HUMAN, & not their symptoms, life stressors, or illness.

My orientation is primarily insight oriented (psychodynamic) and I integrate attachment theory, existential-humanistic, cognitive-behavioral, multicultural, and feminist modalities.
The people I work with often come to me because they are looking to gain insight into emotional patterns, address difficult dynamics, and develop more balanced relationships with themselves or others. Together we paint a picture of their life stories, work to integrate the various aspects of themselves, and move towards the life they want to be living. We take the time to explore the context and history of the problem or symptom they are experiencing in order to better address it. I work with people of all ages and backgrounds and promote authentic expression and reflection in the therapy room.

I believe that life can be both challenging and full of surprises.

I believe that it is my role to create a supportive environment where you can learn to be compassionate and grow into your best self. As a therapist, my goal is to create a safe, empowering, and non-judgmental environment where we can explore your life story and work collaboratively to gain insight and develop skills that promote self-compassion and self-reliance.

I utilize techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), ACT, and Person-Centered.
I believe in living a mindful and intentional life, making choices that are meaningful and healthy, while maintaining awareness of our own thoughts, feelings, and how we interact with others. We can sometimes experience difficulties in life when our physical state, thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and social factors all intersect in a way that negatively impacts our well-being. My goal is to help clients by understanding how certain factors may play a role in their development, health, processing, and conflict. Therapy can be most effective and beneficial when there is an approach that considers the whole person.

I’ve always been moved by humans’ ability to heal and grow through challenging times. I’m excited to engage with clients that are ready to be vulnerable, and dive into therapy to learn, grow, heal, and change.

Clients that apply what we talked about between sessions and put in effort to practice recommended exercises/interventions often see significant change quickly.

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.
