I am a clinical social worker with over 30 years experience working with adolescents, adults and elderly clients. My approach is to use humor, validation, and compassion along with collaborative problem solving. I tend to pull from many different modalities such as psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectic behavioral therapy and mindfulness. I have a deep respect for the resiliency of people and help clients tap into their own strengths.

Central to my work is a psychodynamic approach that incorporates elements of CBT, DBT, parts work, somatic modalities, Buddhist psychology, and transformational memory reconsolidation processes.
If you’re here, you’re looking for help with something that's going on for you in your life. Maybe you’re looking for support as you navigate a transition, mourn a loss, or face a challenge. Or maybe something has been affecting you or your relationships, or keeping you stuck, and you're unsure of how to get to a better place. You may even have tried therapy before, but didn’t find it as helpful as you’d hoped, and you might be worried you can’t be helped. Or maybe personal development and self-understanding are important to you, and you welcome therapy as a part of your growth and evolution.

While my main approach is psychodynamic, my training spans the following modalities: Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Therapy, & Yoga (RYT-200).
Maybe you are a "people pleaser", constantly torn between your own wishes and a sense of duty to others. Or you keep finding yourself in romantic relationships with the same kind of partner who cannot meet your needs. Perhaps you feel that something is just off and you can't figure out why. Together, we can explore how your attachment experiences are contributing to behavior patterns today. I specialize in relational therapy. This means we will heal your relationship to yourself and with others through forming a healthy relationship with one another. My goal is to help you reach the fullest expression of your authentic self.

My therapeutic style is a melding of psychodynamic psychotherapy, problem solving, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), and understanding the impact of your unique childhood experiences on the present.
Loving and caring for someone with psychosis, bi-polar disorder and similar illnesses takes a large toll on the entire family system. I provide short term consultation, resources and/or on going support to these families. Having lived experience with this has taught me so much. Is this or other difficult parts of your life weighing you down? Are your relationships upsetting you? Is work a problem? Do you have family conflict? Self-doubt or indecisiveness? I can work with you to relieve emotional burdens and live a better life.

If you're in a crisis, stuck, or at a turning point you'd like to leverage, a personal counseling retreat is uniquely impactful. It compresses 6-12 months of therapy into a week. The impact is also in the inspiring environment, and sustained process, which allows a deep and more cohesive process. There's time to connect many small dots to a bigger picture. Time to learn, understand and practice new cognitive and behavioral skills. And to cultivate mindfulness and perspective, to practice stepping back to watch distress arise, and then, importantly, pass. You come away with a lived experience of inner resilience, in mind and body.

Through treatment modalities such as mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, I provide clients with the space and tools to work through their issues, to take control of their lives, and to make meaningful decisions.
Having either been through challenges or currently existing in crisis, my clients want to stop merely surviving and instead begin thriving. They see the way things are, and they are no longer satisfied with it. My clients seek understanding, internal peace, and personal growth. They need help clarifying their goals and identifying the methods by which to achieve them. They want to live a life based on their personal values, uninhibited by mental health challenges or relational struggles.

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.
