I utilize techniques from Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Emotion Focused (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Gottman and Attachment-Based Therapy.
I believe that in order to be happy and healthy, we must nourish the whole person. As you begin your journey towards healing, I recognize the great courage it takes to seek help. My goal is to help you discover your true potential and form healthy relationships along the way. I strongly believe that each of us holds the power to change and create the life that we desire. You may feel stuck, not know exactly where to go for help, who the best person would be to talk to, or what to expect from therapy. These are normal questions and concerns. I want to assure you...You are at the right place.

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia.
Do you struggle with panic attacks, insomnia, or worry? Do you have difficulty standing up for yourself and saying no? Perhaps you are stuck in the cycle of perfectionism, where no matter what you do, it never feels like you are good enough? If these questions feel familiar to you, I am so glad you reached out for help. I work with people struggling with anxiety... high achievers who find themselves at a crossroads, where their perfectionism is no longer working for them, but against them. I love helping people find their self-worth from within, and find the skills to set healthy boundaries and live the life they want to live.

I am Board Certified in CBT with additional specialized training in OCD, and I was trained by the leading people in the field of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder… Social Anxiety Disorder… Panic Disorder… Agoraphobia… Phobias… Although these problems may seem different from one another, there is a common thread to them – people engage in behaviors (compulsions or other behaviors to feel “safe” and/or avoidance) in an effort to make themselves feel better, but all those behaviors do is make the fears more powerful over time. It can be very hard to break those patterns, but that is the goal in my work with people with these struggles.

I am strength-based in my approach to counseling and use cognitive behavior therapy to help clients identify and reframe negative thought patterns in order to achieve their goals.
Times of struggle and pain can also be times of positive growth. When we learn that we have choices in how we respond to the situations in our lives, we can become empowered to choose to respond to stressors in a way that enables us to move forward in an intentional and positive direction. It is my goal to help you discover the choices and strengths you have to cope with the challenges you face and to also discover the gifts that are so often hidden in adversities in order that you might actively choose the future you want.

I typically use cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavioral therapy as a foundation for my therapeutic approach.
It takes courage and strength to seek out support during difficult times. Life can be stressful, scary and complicated. Our society puts pressure on us to fit into a mold that can leave us feeling overwhelmed and helpless. We all internalize messages from our peers, family, and the media. Healing happens when we invest in the messages that empower us and challenge the ones that reduce us. Practicing this builds feelings of wholeness, peace, and contentment. If you want to heal but have a hard time figuring out where to start, therapy provides a safe space to support you on this journey.

One of my favorite quotes is, "where you've struggled the most is where you have the most to give if you do your work." My intention for our therapy sessions is for those to be your work. Together, we will examine how to shift your habits and re-vitalize your self-talk. We will find purpose in your struggles and set goals to push you forward. My therapeutic style is collabortive and person-centered. I utilize tools from Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and pull heavily from mindfulness.

I am a cognitive behaviorist and believe what people do rather than what they say so my therapy is heavily focused on and driven by clients who want to get better, are willing to do the work necessary (practice what we discuss, keep a diary, read the suggested books or information sheets), and understand the cognitive behavioral approach.
Having been a practicing psychologist since 1984 I have had thousands of clients. I firmly believe most individuals, with some exceptions, know the answer to their problems but just can't think of it or put it into workable action. My job is to assist the client in narrowly defining their clinical question (what they want to work on) and a metric driven method for knowing when we are improving their situation with with measureable objectives. I provide a great deal of transparency in my therapy including outlining the first ten sessions in detail before we start, my recommended reading list, providing detailed handout sheets

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.
