Accepting New Clients! I am an EMDR trained therapist. If anxiety is preventing you from enjoying your life and you're wondering if you can ever escape it- the answer is yes! The first sentence in Scott Peck’s timeless book The Road Less Traveled is “life is difficult”. Such a simple grouping of words and yet so insightful. When we understand and accept that life is difficult, we have taken the first step on the road towards healing. Traveling this road can be more manageable and less scary if someone walks alongside us offering encouragement or a different perspective. I can be this resource for you.

I believe in brief, solution focused therapy to change behavior and produce lasting change.
Finding the right therapist, taking that first step, is one of the most difficult parts of therapy. Finding a good fit when it comes to a therapeutic relationship is key to gaining symptom relief and creating lasting change in your life. My purpose is to provide a relaxed, comfortable, and trusting environment to help you gain insight into behaviors that are keeping you stuck and elicit the change you are seeking.

*Accepting new clients* My clients are typically either individuals or couples. The individuals that I work well with are typically experiencing depression or anxiety, or having trouble adjusting to life changes. I love working with those that want a challenge or help achieving specific goals. I also work largely with couples at every stage of their relationship. Navigating a relationship without effective communication is usually what brings couples to me. I then help them develop stronger friendship and intimacy and manage conflict more effectively. Let's schedule an initial consultation to see if my style is a good fit for you!

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists
How does solution-focused therapy work?
The treatment works by helping a client notice which behaviors and thoughts have positive results on their lives and building a plan around how to maximise these strengths. Practitioners of solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) believe that individuals already have the experience, wisdom, and resilience to create change in their lives, but may need a guide to help them realise which changes to make and how to make them.
Is solution-focused brief therapy evidence-based?
Yes. Solution-focused brief therapy has been extensively studied, and researchers find strong evidence that it’s an effective treatment for many behavioral and psychological concerns. This may be due to the uplifting nature and practicality of the treatment, which allows patients to employ strategies to reach their goals that are incremental and achievable.
How long does solution-focused brief therapy last?
Solution-focused brief therapy, as the name implies, is brief. The timeline may vary from person to person, given the challenges they face and their situation in life, but treatment is typically complete within four to eight sessions. This therapy type is a pragmatic one: it’s concerned more with “how” problems can be addressed and improved than getting to the root of “why” they exist in the first place.
Is solution-focused brief therapy a type of cognitive behavioral therapy?
Solution-focused brief therapy is related to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)in that both are pragmatic approaches that deal less with gaining a full understanding of the cause of a mental health problem and more with creating plans for how to cope with these problems and improve an individual’s day-to-day life. They are distinct, however, in that SFBT emphasises building on strengths and resources, while CBT focuses on changing negative thoughts and behaviors.
