I practice Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a type of therapy that focuses on exploring the relationship between situations, thoughts and behaviors, to help you have a kinder relationship with your inner critic.
Accepting new patients (as of July). My practice specializes in working with folx from erotically marginalized communities. Whether you are queer, pursuing ENM/CNM/Polyamory, or have a kink or fetish, you deserve a therapist who understands the importance of these parts of your life, won't criticize or pathologize them and is with you in solidarity and community. I am pleasure-positive, kink-aware, and passionate about working with people who have been or are involved in sex work. My work is informed by an intersectional feminist lens and incorporates principles of body neutrality and health at every size (HAES).

When asked what an ideal client is, my response is that it does not exist and often the issue that a client starts with evolves into something different. The goal is to work with each individual to develop a sense of the problem and begin to look at strategies to move towards solutions. For some people that involves a few weeks of therapy and fo others, it is a longer journey

My clients are the former high-achievers who now are chronically burnt out. They kept overpacked schedules, were people pleasers, or silently struggled passing under the radar. Perhaps they have been able to keep up this pace and approach into adulthood- for a while. Many of my clients have reached a point where they want to make changes to how they approach their life, mental health, personal relationships, and boundaries. We will work together to look at your day to day challenges, and consider how systems like capitalism, racism, ableism, fatphobia, and anti-LGBTQIA rhetoric effects you and your lived experience.

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.
