I offer techniques such as trauma-focused CBT, art, and play, adjusted to your family’s needs.
Society tells us that being a parent is a special gift. We’re supposed to love every minute of it, be nearly perfect, and never get impatient. That sounds ideal, but the truth is that parenting is hard. Being a kid is hard. I challenge you to find a parent who has never lost their temper, or a child who never complains! And when we do get it right we don’t usually get much recognition. That’s the difficult news. The good news is that parents and children can learn to have stronger connections, more fun together, and actually look forward to their time as a family. You may just need more support, education, and the tools to do it.

During treatment, I will utilize a combination of mindfulness, cognitive, and behavioral based interventions.
We cannot avoid stress and painful experiences in our lives. However, we can develop effective coping skills to reduce our suffering and to develop meaning. I believe that effective treatment consists of helping clients to balance both acceptance and change- by learning to live alongside what is beyond our control, while making the necessary changes in our lives to reach our true potential.

We’ll primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT) interventions to help you develop healthier thought patterns and coping strategies.
Are you a young adult or millennial (aged 21-44) struggling with anxiety or navigating a new life change? You’ve come to the right place! Maybe you’ve been struggling with anxiety for years and you’re now feeling ready to work through it. Or maybe you’re having difficulty adjusting to a recent life event such as a relationship ending, a job change, or graduating from college. On the outside you may look like you’ve got it all together, but on the inside you find yourself spiraling with “what ifs”, ruminating on worst case scenarios, second guessing your choices, and doubting your capabilities. I hear you. I can help.

By combining mindfulness skills with cognitive therapy tools, we’ll free up energy that you can channel into necessary self-care.
You finally left the office after another long day. This should be when you can take a deep breath and relax, but it’s not. The day’s stress is still with you, and you have no way to shut it off. And in some ways, this is more comfortable for you. You’ve spent so long training yourself to ignore your own needs that it’s easier to stay focused on everyone and everything else. But lately, you’ve begun to wonder what it’s all for. You see other people enjoying full lives. Meanwhile, you’re stuck in this narrow existence. You love your career, but there must be more to life than this. Now is the time to make a change.

My background in teaching human development and psychology college courses combined with my clinical training in research-based tools ( CBT, ERP, ACT, DBT, PBT) helps clients gain insight into how their past influences their current state while providing the tools to change into who they are becoming or wanting to become.
Change how you think, change how you feel. My ideal client wants to identify unhelpful thinking patterns that contribute to their emotional suffering. Once motivated, they are willing to make a commitment to themselves and do the hard work it takes to create lasting change in their thinking, behaviors, and feelings. They are wanting tools & are willing to practice those tools in and out of session until they find the ones that will work for them. I offer a self-help program aimed at helping alleviate depression and anxiety, creating new habits or reducing unhealthy habits, and creating the relationships clients want to achieve.

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.
