I have a client centered approach and I use an eclectic mix of skills from various types of therapy approaches, including CBT.
I am a licensed professional counselor with 20+ years of experience. I am interested in helping people find hope and direction in their lives. Life has been difficult for many during these past few years and many people have been isolated from the support they need. It can be additionally challenging if you have symptoms of anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD, or mania. Through Telehealth and weekly appointments, I am accessible and can help you from the comfort of your own home. See link, lower right side of screen, to schedule directly on my website.

I prefer to use skills from Narrative Therapy and Mindfulness-Based CBT.
If you are someone who has experienced a recent life-altering event, finding it difficult to keep up with your day to day tasks, or even just need a safe person to tell your story to, I would love to help. I enjoy working with people who are struggling to grasp the changes happening around them. Life can move so quickly, and often times it is hard to keep up. Learning the skills to cope and processing those life-altering events can vastly improve how you feel when life is feeling unmanageable.

As a therapist, I take an integrative approach to therapy, drawing on a range of therapeutic modalities to address the unique needs of each individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT) is a primary modality I utilize to help individuals address and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress. I often use CBT to help individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, and other mood-related disorders. Person-centered and humanistic approaches are grounded in empathy, compassion, and unconditional positive regard.

Through somatics and TF- CBT, we can help you find the strength to heal and thrive once again.
You’re trapped in a never-ending nightmare while living through narcissistic abuse. At first, it was subtle–they showered you with affection, painting a picture-perfect image of love and adoration. Then, slowly, insidiously, the mask began to slip. Their affection turned into manipulation. They gaslit you and chipped away at your self-esteem. Now, you find yourself walking on eggshells, tiptoeing around their ever-changing moods. Even as you suffocate under the weight of their control, you can't bring yourself to leave. Fear holds you captive. Fear of what they'll do if you try to escape, fear of being alone, fear of the unknown.

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.
