I am a Certified Brainspotting Therapist in addition to being trained in the following: Internal Family Systems, Schema Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.
I’ve provided traditional talk therapy for many years and I am excited to offer a different approach! Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is an innovative approach that combines the use of ketamine with therapy to facilitate healing and therapeutic breakthroughs. KAP has been shown to be effective in treating various issues, especially when traditional treatments have been unsuccessful. Ketamine helps clients explore their thoughts, emotions, and traumatic experiences more deeply, while I support and heal with the psychotherapy piece in a safe space. PLEASE note: this is a specialized service as an adjunct to your current therapy

Life is an adventure. Sometimes there are high mountains to climb, rough waters swim, or dragons to tame, but you don’t have to face them alone. I’m here because I know what it’s like to feel like you’re drowning. My goal as a therapist is to provide a place where people can step out of the storm and breathe. Working with teens and adults, I use trauma-informed and a harm reduction framework, at a client led pace. This means I will not expect you to “dive right in” and share your deepest fears or darkest secrets minutes after meeting me. There’s no pressure here. Whatever your focus is, that is where we will start.

Did you know one of the most frequently discussed topics in a therapy session is relationships? We are wired to connect. Love and acceptance are needs we strive to experience. But we may lack the ability to communicate our priorities and values and to engage and regulate ourselves during intense conversations. This often leads to stagnation, limited opportunities, and a lack of meaningful connection. Therapy with me can bring clarity through identifying your strengths and developing additional skills to bolster your ability to tap into your greatness.

Do you want to feel more in control of your thoughts? Are you wanting to move more towards the people, places, and things that are important to you? Change can be scary. Sometimes life can feel overwhelming. It can make us feel less interested in our favorite activities, like we will never be happy or fulfilled, or that there will never be a solution to what you are going through. Our anxious thoughts can get in the way of being present with ourselves and our family/friends. We all just want to feel grounded in the present moment, like we belong and are prepared to face anything that comes our way.

Schema Therapy

How does schema therapy work?

Schema therapy is based on the idea that maladaptive thought patterns formed in childhood—that other people can never be relied on, for example—can interfere with healthy functioning in adulthood. Accordingly, schema therapy works by directly targeting such unhealthy schemas, identifying their consequences, and replacing them with more adaptive ways of thinking. To this end, schema therapists aim to “reparent” the client by offering what they didn’t get in childhood—validation, for instance, or compassion—to reorient their worldview.

Is schema therapy evidence-based?

Schema therapy is still considered relatively new, and research on its efficacy is still in progress. However, some studies have concluded that it can be effective at treating certain mental health conditions, most notably personality disorders such as borderline personality disorder. Evidence for its efficacy in treating conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and OCD is promising but less conclusive, and experts warn that much of the existing research is of low quality.

Is schema therapy a type of CBT?

Schema therapy is based on many principles of CBT, most notably the process of recognizing and challenging maladaptive thought patterns. But because schema therapy also draws from other approaches,including psychoanalysis and Gestalt therapy, it is not considered a form of CBT. It also typically delves deeper into the client’s childhood than does CBT.

How does schema therapy work?

Schema therapy does not call for a set number of sessions and is instead open-ended, with the treatment timeline depending on the client’s primary concern(s), progress, and preferences. Treatment that lasts between six months and two years is common, though many clients will start to see progress much earlier than that.
