During the therapeutic process I use a variety of treatment modalities of cognitive behavioral, solution focused, person centered and trauma informed approaches designed to meet the needs of each of my clients and their circumstance.
Life can be very complex as there are rewarding times and times when life feels too difficult to manage but with my support and guidance we can work collaboratively to get through those difficult times together. I have experience working with individuals that have struggles with anxiety, depression, trauma and life stress.

Therefore, I tailor my approach to fit the needs of each client using a blend of CBT, DBT, ACT and other supportive therapies.
Over the past 20+ years, my role as a therapist, has been to be a guide. One who is taking you on a journey to emotional well-being and discovery of your authentic self. This self is the part of you not defined by your job, function or role. It's the blending of all your skills, talents and wisdom. Embracing your authentic self allows you to break free from roles other people may have placed you in. This means that what you say in life aligns with not only your words and thoughts but also your actions. Not being one's own authentic self can be at the root of anxiety, depression, frustration, anger and even relationships problems.

Life transitions (including the family building process, pregnancy and postpartum periods) are vulnerable and transformative times. Often, the emotions that we experience during time periods of change do not align with the expectations that we had for how we would feel. I aim to provide a safe space for the processing and understanding of your emotions and guide you in developing tools to help you feel grounded. I have a passion for working with young adults transitioning to a more independent phase of their lives, women navigating family planning/building, and those who identify as empaths/highly sensitive.

My approach is tailored to your needs, using modalities including Mindfulness, CBT, DBT, Solution Focused, Interpersonal, and Multi-cultural therapeutic approaches.
Finding a therapist to start the journey toward healing can be scary, but it does not have to be. Through therapy together we can work towards achieving your goal in a safe, compassionate, and authentic environment. Our feelings can shed light on understanding the complexities of our lives and situations. Often emotions are layered, causing us to feel lost, confused, anxious, and even powerless. Life changes can occur without a formal "heads up" whether it's starting something new like a career, school, or relationship or even parenting can feel daunting without the proper support.

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.
