With expertise in CBT-E, FBT and ERP (for ARFID), I will support you in creating positive change.
When you or a loved one is struggling it can be hard to know where to start in bringing about positive change. It may seem like the strategies you are using to make things better just aren’t working, which can lead to feeling stuck, hopeless and uncertain. I believe therapy should be a collaborative and safe space to work together on better understanding how your thoughts, emotions and behaviors interact, with the goal being to find strategies and solutions that help you to live a life consistent with your values. Specializing in eating disorders and co-occurring disorders, I particularly enjoy working with young adults.

Hello. If you are dealing with a situation that seems so big, it gets in the way of other things in your life, or if you are trying to make sense of a relationship issue, a decision that can’t be resolved or maybe dealing with what you think might be anxiety or depression or some other mental health issue, know that mental health therapy can help you to clarify, manage and feel better. I work with adolescents, teens and adults who want an open minded listener who brainstorms with you to find creative solutions to the things that are keeping you from functioning and feeling as well as you think you can.

In addition to narrative therapy, I utilize CBT, mindfulness, DBT skills, and more to support children, families, and adults.
Your unique experiences and relationships tell stories of who you are. The more that these negative stories are reinforced and re-told, the more "stuck" you become. Together we can work to identify the alternative stories that are hidden, neglected, and often contain untapped potential. This narrative approach allows new meaning to infuse your life and ease signs of suffering. I have been partnering with children, families, and couples for over 8 years to construct healthier stories that redefine the landscape of life. You are not the problem - the problem is the problem.

I Integrate various psychotherapy modalities such as cognitive behavior therapy, relaxation, and mindfulness into my practice.
Stress, anxiety, sadness, interpersonal relationship challenges, and trauma are different spectrum of life that we all have been experiencing as human. If we ignore and keep living without doing anything about it, it will keep piling up and starts affecting our overall well-being. Being trained in homeopathic medicine from India and practicing homeopathy for few years, I quickly realized the connection of mind and body which inspired me to advance my knowledge in the field of counseling to provide holistic approach to health. I will be able to help you to make changes in your life and stay in harmony at every level of health.

My therapy approach combines Cognitive-Behavioral and Solution-Focused interventions with Humanistic/Existential theory.
In my experience, a person who seeks therapy wants solutions that work. And since two heads are better than one, I believe an effective therapeutic alliance can help people attain the happiness and fulfillment they desire. When a safe and trusting environment is established, people can learn to value themselves, develop healthy relationships and heal from painful experiences.
My therapy style is direct and active. I rely on honesty and authenticity in therapy to guide our collaborative efforts. Therapy can only be successful when the client and therapist have a good working relationship and the client participates fully.

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.
