I have training many psychotherapy and body based therapies including; Self-Relations Therapy, Body-Mind Centering, Pesso Psycho-Motor, Solution Focused Therapy, Gestalt, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, and Action Theatre.
My approach Integrative Psychotherapy draws primarily from Interpersonal Psychotherapy and Insight Meditation. It is my experience that people make changes in their lives in therapy when they feel appropriately supported and understood. This combined with awareness developed through mindfulness practices enables people to take the insights cultivated in therapy sessions and implement them in their lives. I see therapy as an opportunity to explore how our thoughts and perceptions about our life situations, determine the quality of how we experience our lives. Our self-perceptions developed throughout our lives, are often our greatest impediment to changing our lives.

I have an engaged, body-mind relational approach, that I call Integrative Counseling. This approach builds on your strengths, and helps you cultivate self-awareness and find new perspectives, leading to a more satisfying and fulfilling life. Integrative counseling includes breathing and mindfulness practices, the development of body awareness, the experience of therapeutic touch, as well as verbal and emotional processing, depending on your needs. As a caring, well trained professional I help people to overcome anxiety, depression, relationship problems, physical pain, job stress, addiction, and life transitions in healthy, nurturing ways.

I work from the idea that all of our life experiences are opportunities to discover ourselves. The road to peace, health, healing, purpose, meaning, and happiness is learning how to allow and be more of YOU, and less of who you think you should/ need to be. You and I will process your story, get to know your patterns, see what is getting in the way, and ultimately help you feel empowered and inspired.

I am an integrative therapist focused on healing the split associated with trauma. Trauma can disconnect you from your authenticity and power, creating a misalignment in your mind-body and spirit. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and the Inner Counselor are two highly effective approaches used for healing. I see clients with panic disorder and depression, sexual abuse, abusive relationships, codependency and self-esteem issues and more. Bringing health and balance back around areas that have become compulsions (eating, sex, alcohol, relationships, etc.) is another important part of this personal healing journey.

I specialize in supporting individuals preparing for or experiencing challenges in postpartum, and through other life changes. You eagerly anticipated welcoming a new baby, or making a big change in your life, but it's not going quite how you had hoped. You're realizing you’re feeling drained, on edge, overwhelmed, you're wasting time on mindless distractions, and have lost sight of the parent you are or wanted to be. Or maybe you noticed your relationships with others started to become strained, angry, or distant. I can support you in figuring out what’s causing those feelings and how to get back to who you once were… only better!

I work primarily through a CBT lens but am eclectic in my approach and open to processing through symbolic and non-traditional ways that reflect your lifestyle.
I hold a core belief that no one wants to be “bad” or do “bad.” Keeping this in mind, I prefer to highlight strengths and focus on how we learn and grow in our challenging moments. Therapy isn't one-size-fits-all, and I don't come in knowing exactly what will work for you. My goal is to approach each session with curiosity and to collaborate with you on a unique plan that pulls from your strengths and creativity. My style is direct and action-oriented. I won't just ask, “How does that make you feel?” I'll ask, “What are we going to do about it?” I’m trans, queer and neurodivergent, and I love working with folks of shared experience.

I use EMDR, CBT and person-centered therapy.
I specialize in anxiety, past traumas, ADHD, disordered eating, confidence, feeling overwhelmed/inadequate and perfectionism. It can feel impossible keeping up with everything that life throws at you. Whether that's traumatic events, relationship struggles, or trying to keep up with day to day tasks while keeping loved ones happy. Life can feel like a constant battle with stress and overwhelm. I take a direct, empathetic and non-judgmental approach that creates a safe and warm environment allowing you to explore your inner thoughts, feelings and behaviors that may be contributing to these feelings.

My therapeutic approach is trauma and attachment-informed with awareness around emotional, cognitive, and somatic processes.
We all have had experiences throughout life that shape, enhance, or distort our perceptions of relationships and interactions. Some of these experiences can hinder us, stop us in our tracks, keep us cycling in a dysfunctional loop, or thrust us forward into turmoil. We can get stuck in these places, desperately seeking a way out. Depression, anxiety, anger, and loneliness kick us into a dysfunctional spiral. These cycles often pair with undercurrents of pain, confusion, self-criticism, doubt, and shame. I want to help shine light on the map you have been using by sorting out your thoughts and feelings.

I offer PCT, CBT, IFS, and EMDR.
Do the simplest things lead to the biggest problems, and sometimes big problems seem "not that big a deal"? Maybe you notice that you struggle with making connections (lasting friendships or romantic relationships etc.), and you feel alone even in a crowd. Do you struggle with mental health, trauma, or generational patterns that continually recycle in your mental, emotional, and physical experiences? Is it possible you or a loved one are struggling with addiction and have a hard time finding peace or relief? What if you are struggling with your spirituality and feel a little pull in a certain direction, and unsure of what to do?

I do lean pretty heavily on a type of CBT called ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy).
My work primarily focuses on anxiety related issues especially when going through a transition (break-up, career change, medical diagnosis). I work a lot with people as they adjust to life living on their own, navigating careers, and relationships. Much of the session will be focused on calming your flight or flight reaction so you can be in a better place to make decisions, set goals and respond to whatever life throws at you. I provide video and face to face sessions.

I believe in using evidence based approaches in my work, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
I know how hard it is to seek help when you’re struggling. I get it because I've been there too. You deserve to live fully. You deserve better than scheduling problems, long drives, big bills, and weak outcomes. Maybe you’re afraid it will take years of counseling just to start feeling better. I believe therapy should be a lot more than learning how to cope or survive something. It should help you achieve your goals, thrive in relationships, and live more fully.

Some modalities that I often use are: IFS (Internal Family Systems), EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), CBT ( Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), and EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy).
My approach is rooted in the experience and belief that we have the answers within. I want my clients to not only survive the challenges they are facing, but to thrive and live a life that they love. My clients are often incredibly intelligent, creative, and driven. I have seen my clients accomplish amazing things when they get clear on their goals and apply their gifts toward a fulfilling and meaningful life. My goal is to help you get beneath the layers (often thoughts, behaviors, and relationship patterns) and get down to your core. Much of our work focuses on aligning your decisions and actions with your own truth.

I believe every child and adolescent has the potential within themselves to become healthier and happier, and it is my job to help them unlock that potential. Traditional cognitive and behavioral approaches often fail to create meaningful change, which can lead to feelings of failure or discouragement rather than empowerment. Whether your child or adolescent is struggling with self-esteem, social challenges, or regulation skills, I can help them recognize and unlock the skills and strengths that they already have to over come those challenges.

In my practice, I utilize a number of trauma informed approaches such as EMDR (Online or In-Person), Somatic Experiencing (SE), Internal Family Systems (IFS), CBT, and more to help you resolve these early childhood traumas so that you can experience the peace, joy, and freedom in your life that you are desiring and worthy of having.
For the last 10 years I have specialized in working with boys, teenagers, men, women, and families. If this is you, it is my goal to help you overcome the barriers and problems in your life that are keeping you from experiencing the freedom you are desiring. Most often, these problems are the result of unresolved trauma and wounding from childhood. Perhaps you're experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD, sexual abuse, addiction (sexual, drug/alcohol, work), lack of self confidence, family issues, relationship difficulties, negative coping habits, physical or auto-immune disorders, or more.

I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy ( CBT), dialectal behavioral therapy (DBT), as well as solution-focused therapy, and am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
I feel passionate about serving those who have experienced trauma, particularly attachment-based trauma. Above all, stable and consistent connection for someone with an attachment-based trauma can make all the difference in the world. I believe there is great power in holding a space for someone to feel heard and understood, as many folks do not have that safe space with anyone in their life. I also have experience working with folks with substance use challenges. I find that substances can often be what someone turns to when they don’t have the tools and support they need to manage the challenges they are facing.

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.
