Waitlist for new clients
I am a third-wave Cognitive Behavior Therapist (CBT) specializing in Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindful Self-Compassion skills (MSC), Interactive Guided Meditation, Sandtray, EMDR, and grief counseling.
Waitlist is closed at this time. There is a Buddhist contemplation: pain is inevitable but suffering is a choice. I don’t know if I believe that suffering is a “choice”, but there are skills that we can learn and practice that will reduce our suffering even in the midst of pain, discomfort, or unfortunate events. Together we will work to build and expand your toolbox so you may fully engage in your life.

I am not accepting new couples at this time.

I enjoy assisting clients learn healthier communication and conflict resolution skills, and concurrently learn how to cope with life stressors better. I strive to help my clients gain a better understanding of themselves, and their problematic and possibly self destructive patterns. Sometimes just a new perspective on an old problem can help propel us toward making healthy changes in our lives.

Often times, navigating relationships can be similar to walking through a minefield. The only problem is that most of us tend to step on a few mines. The deep hurt and emotional trauma that each exploding mine causes in our lives is carried into all subsequent relationships we dare to enter. In dealing with the pain of past relationships, many struggle to cope and find solutions to push back against their very real pain; many of these solution cause deep wounds of their own.

Struggles at home, work, school, or church can lead to frustration and doubt. There are ways that you can move from surviving through life to really have peace with life. People find that the increased frustration effects their life in ways of lost focus, broken relationships, discomfort in crowds, and loss of confidence to name a few. These all lead to the anxiety which makes one believe there is no escape. Do you find that you continue to feeling as if nothing will change? Do you find that many years of therapy have led to no results?

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.
