The trainings that I have allow me to utilize cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, behavioral modifications, psychodynamic, integrative nutrition and animal assisted therapy.
Using a integrative style, I work with my clients in order to help them explore the social, emotional, biological, nutritional, and intellectual factors that are impeding them. My primary goal as a therapist is to build warm relationships characterized by acceptance and humor. I find that it is empowering for my clients to take an active role in creating our work together, whether that is short-term treatment targeting a specific problem, or more in-depth work.

In therapy, I provide individuals with the space to process the challenges they are facing and help them to identify and change the barriers impeding growth (unhelpful thinking styles, behaviors, relationship patterns, etc). I utilize interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy, and offer flexibility to meet people where they are and address individual needs. In my practice, I currently work with adolescents (13-17) and adults (18-60) and my overall goal for family therapy is to improve communication, understanding, and connection between family members.

Growing up in today’s world is HARD. Your kids are inundated with filters, highlight reels and endless opportunities to feel left out or less than. Is your adolescent struggling to find their place? Have they become less interested (or not interested at all) in activities they used to enjoy or at least be open to trying? Do they seem withdrawn, consumed by thoughts of what others think? Less motivated and/or moodier than usual? Maybe you’ve looked into therapy before but you can’t get your child to agree to go sit across from an adult and talk about their feelings week after week ("I'm not going!")

Do you feel like nothing you say or do with your teenager is right? Are you worried about your child's safety, their behavior, and/or their future? Trying to effectively parent a struggling teenager can be incredibly challenging.

I help families/parents/individuals identify what their therapeutic goals are, what is getting in the way of meeting those goals, and what needs to happen to create a safer, healthier family that can move forward together.

Behavioral Issues Therapists
What happens in therapy for behavioral issues?
No matter the type of therapy, individuals form an alliance with the therapist; that connection is often therapeutic in itself, plus it becomes an instrument of change. Individuals learn to identify situations that are especially troublesome for them and acquire new patterns of thinking and behaving. In therapy for ADHD, one of the most common behavior issues for children, individuals learn how to improve frustration tolerance, control impulsivity, manage attentional focus, and gain skills of self-organisation.
What therapy types help with behavioral issues?
Many types of therapy have been found effective, each targeting one or more areas of dysfunction. Perhaps best-known and most widely tested is cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT), in which individuals learn new behavioral strategies and curb reactivity to frustrating or distressing situations that trigger disruptive behaviour. Anger, anxiety, mood disorders, impulse control problems are commonly addressed in CBT. Family therapy or parent management training is often helpful to reduce parent-child conflict and behavioral difficulties at home.
How long does therapy last for behavioral issues?
Among popular approaches to treating behavioral concerns, CBT is considered a short-term therapy intended to be administered in 15 to 20 weekly sessions. Parent training in behavior management, often used when the underlying cause of behavior issues is ADHD in children under 12, usually occurs in weekly sessions for 8 to 16 weeks. When behavioral issues stem from persistent aggression or defiance, therapy may last for months, and usually targets both children and their parents.
How effective is therapy for behavior issues?
Studies show that therapy for behavior issues in children is highly effective and may prevent the development of antisocial behavior later in life. Family intervention—parent management training or family therapy, both of which involve parents and children together—is considered most effective, notably for children under age 12 who persistently engage in aggressive, defiant, rule-breaking or other disruptive behavior. Whether provided alone or in combination with medication, CBT is highly effective in helping people regulate their emotions, and for people with ADHD, it addresses impulsiveness, hyperactivity and attentional focus.
