I am a cognitive behavioral therapist that will work with you on identifying and reframing harmful thinking patterns.
My ideal client is someone who enters into therapy curious about themselves and seeking self-improvement on a daily basis. This client wants help with everyday struggles such as: relationship issues, anxiety, feelings of sadness, or stress related to life circumstances. My ideal client knows what they want and has the tools to improve themselves but needs help in finding these answers within themselves. I view therapy as a collaborative effort in which the client and I work together to find relief.

I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy.
There is an irony to healing. It is a process that requires self love and motivation, and at the same time the lack of motivation and lack of self love is part of what needs healing. We have an ability to smile or laugh externally while it may not truly match the way we feel inside. This results in not feeling fully known and feelings of loneliness amidst relationships. We are walking around with various types of traumas or betrayals from being hurt by those who should have been protecting us. There is anxiety, depression, identity crises, and the stressors of life. Yet there is hope to find peace and contentment and rise again.

Are you struggling with conflict, boundaries, communication skills, and daily functioning in your relationship? Relationships can be difficult to navigate on your own which is why couples counseling can be a good place to learn more about yourself and your relationship. Couples counseling can be daunting to start, but therapy can provide a safe and comfortable environment to share and open up to your partner. In my approach, I meet with you and your partner individually to learn as much as possible about your past and the history of the relationship as we work towards healthier communication and behavioral patterns.

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.
