CBT is one of my specialties, therefore, you will have tangible skills to utilize outside of sessions.
Accepting a limited number of NEW clients... Do you feel like life just isn’t going as planned lately? Do you feel stuck and like you’ve lost who you were? Is your main coping skill scrolling on TikTok? Are your thoughts controlling you? Do you find yourself binging TV shows more than having meaningful interactions? Are you anxious or walking on eggshells waiting for the other shoe to drop? If you’re ready to process and cope with these feelings then I’m your girl!

While I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT), I will use a variety of techniques catered to your individual needs and experiences.
Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes “overwhelming” and “unfair” seem like more accurate descriptions. When comfort, happiness, fulfillment, and optimism have become lost in the shadows of troublesome life experiences, it is hard to figure out our next step. Though it might be scary, contacting a counselor is the first step toward reclaiming the satisfaction that’s been since-missing. Whether you are seeking therapy for the first time, or looking for a new counselor that better suits your needs, you’ve come to the right place.

I truly believe that we can identify, conquer, and remove whatever blocks are keeping us from being the best versions of ourselves, and that we can rewrite our own story! These blocks do not define us, and more often than not, we can break down our Cognitive Distortions, reconstruct our thought patterns, leading to new pathways, and take our power back!.
In all of my years of working with people- humans- this is what I've learned. We are ALL unique! And many of us tend to feel that our struggles, along with how we handle ourselves, is what defines us- and that's not true! We can only do what we can with what we've got!- with: what we've seen and learned, what we've been conditioned to do, our ability to emotionally self-regulate or not, opportunities presented to us, supports we have, our level of resilience, survival techniques we may or may not have, what we are capable of doing and achieving, etc! No matter what has happened in your life up until now, you have survived!

I use an eclectic approach with emphasis on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT) strategies.
Today's changing world has led to struggles with loss, grief and transition. These struggles threaten our physical, mental and spiritual health. When we are desperate for relief, poor coping can lead to devastating consequences such as addiction, depression, physical health issues, and other self-destructive behaviors. I believe that addiction affects the mind, body and spirit and is potentially life-threatening but treatable. Recovery is achieving one's best self physically, mentally and spiritually.

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.
