I utilize different therapy modalities such as Person-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT).
Sometimes life feels unpredictable, goals feel unachievable, and the darkness feels relentless. Do you wonder if there is in fact hope of breaking free from the pain that has kept you chained for so long? Do you wonder if it's worth giving therapy one more try? Whatever your story and whatever brought you to right here and right now, I want you to know that this feels hard because it IS hard. I know how vulnerable it can feel to take that first step toward therapy with a new person, and I want you to know that I will do everything I can to make this a safe place for you. Your story matters and hope is never gone for good.

I offer trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy and am informed by Somatic Experiencing for healing trauma.
It can be exceptionally difficult to go through daily life, and I've found that to be true for most (if not all) people I know and love. There are so many difficult things that can pile up on one another, making it complicated to maintain relationships, wellness, work, and other things you might value. Sometimes it's hard to "ask for what you need" because sometimes we have no idea! I'm here to help even when that question feels hard to answer, and our work can start with exploring goals you have for yourself. The resiliency I see in clients is awe-inspiring and beautiful, and I offer several approaches to help them get there.

My specialty entails the following: Certified Transpersonal Hypnotist and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Treatment.
Protect Your Mind. It is very important for people to protect their minds. If we do not protect our minds, we will gravitate towards anxiety, stress, worry, complaining, frustration, anger, physical illness and to things of the world the average person cannot control. Within this present time, I am offering consultation and teaching to address how to cope with the uncertainty of the unknown. This time period of uncertainty within our world will pass and a healthy mind will make this process much easier and more effective for the greater well-being.

Have you realized how important self- care is ? "You can't pour from an empty cup." My ideal client is someone who is ready for change. Someone who is ready to improve their response to stress, anxiety (or fear of the unknown), doubt and rejection. My ideal client may consider themselves a multi-tasker, having little time for their own needs; a parent/ guardian, mom, wife, "boss." You may be considering the next steps of your life and how to achieve your ultimate goals; mentally, spiritually, in relationships and career. My ideal client has a vision for their life and wants to see it come to fruition.

Growing up in a multicultural household, as well as life experience makes it easy for me to relate to individuals and families from all walks of life.

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.
