I currently counsel under the lens of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy to help re-write narratives and use a person-centered approach to ensure that our sessions are as flexible as what we are thinking and feeling about.
Life's hurdles are unexpected and frustrating to deal with in a society that expects we shoulder them without flinching. The past 2 years has not helped most in regards to relationships and how we view ourselves. Maybe you know what you need to do to get past your self-view, a toxic relationship, a past trauma. Maybe you are unsure at this point - either way - keeping your thoughts in isolation only breeds discontent, which can trickle into every facet of our lives until we cannot remember what our "best-self" looked like. I would be happy and privileged to be a blank canvas for you to spill out your frustration, grief, and joy.

I aspire to create a space that allows individuals to show up as their fullest self. As we work together towards goals and unpack obstacles, I believe clients come to therapy to better understand themselves and to improve their quality of life. Therapy can be transformative; but it can also be confusing and bring up parts of the individual they’ve avoided and are afraid to sit in. My role is not to be an expert on my clients’ life, but to be an empathetic guide that helps them sit in and heal through those moments. I implement elements of person centered, CBT, Internal Family Systems, ACT, mindfulness, as well as a somatic approach.

Life's path can be a very challenging road to travel, but an opportunity to grow, strengthen and help rebalance the mind, body & soul. Identifying roadblocks, the distorted thoughts that lead to faulty conclusions are the first steps to healing in this journey. People who find themselves trapped on the same dead end road are not always aware that they are using the same coping mechanisms to navigate through life. Being cognizant of these patterns create the opportunity to be on a different path necessary for growth & change. This therapeutic process is a courageous, life transforming 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.
