Do you find yourself overwhelmed with stress or worries in your daily life? Is it having an impact on your work, relationships, or how you feel about yourself? Often, we can manage stress on our own, but other times, it's helpful to seek out a therapist for support. In therapy, we can work to improve self-awareness and understand our reactions to triggering events. We can learn specific skills to help with stress and coping, practice new ways to think about situations, find courage to make important decisions, and adjust our behavior in ways that may lead to more positive outcomes.
I am trained in CBT, mindfulness based therapies, and I have specialized training in RO-DBT that focuses on over-control coping styles. I often consider the mind-body connection when approaching treatment. Specific areas of interest are mood (depression) and anxiety disorders, adjustment disorders, life transitions, and health psychology.
I create a supportive and accepting environment, and will approach our work together with sincerity and compassion. I offer a free 30 minute initial consultation so we can talk in-person or by phone and decide if we will be a good fit. Please call or email if you would like to schedule a time to talk.
