Have you ever felt stuck? How about lost or unsure of where to go in life? Caught in a cycle of anxiety over past experiences or future worries? Do you struggle with a negative self-image, or self-defeating behaviors? Concerned that no one understands your situation, or that you can't be helped? I specialize in work with adults and teenagers who struggle with any or all of the above questions to help find answers and provide meaning to these experiences.
My experience over the past 10+ years has taught me that everyone can learn to not only cope with their struggles, but achieve a life worth living. My approach is based on a combination of various evidence-based therapies, including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, and Humanistic/Existential approaches.
Seeking therapy provides the opportunity for a safe, judgment-free space to work on ourselves. Recognizing the need for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. I work with clients to acknowledge problem areas but also highlight existing strengths (we all have them!). Give me a call and let me help you to create the best version of you that you wish to be!
