For the better part of a decade of my professional career I had the privilege of working with children and teenagers from traumatic backgrounds such as abuse and neglect. That experience paved the way for my approach to counseling which seeks to help clients understand the connections between thoughts, emotions and behaviors. Much of my counseling experience has been focused on the treatment of Anxiety based disorders including phobias, OCD, PTSD, social anxiety, panic, and generalized anxiety. I also have spent noted time helping clients walking through clinical depression and disorders such as AD/HD.

At times everyone deals with anxiety, depression, stressors, and life transitions.
It takes courage to take the first step and reach out for help. I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where you are able to share your story. My goal is for you to feel honored, valued and heard. Maybe you are dealing with relationship concerns like a change in your family situation or concerns with a child. Maybe you or your child is feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed or trying to overcome low self-esteem. Possibly, there are struggles with family, life transitions, friends or school. All of these topics can be tough but talking with someone can help. I would be honored to help you with any of your concerns.

For over 18 years, I have worked with a full spectrum of patients, dealing with anxiety, depression, and many other issues.
People should live happier, healthier lives. That is what all people want and deserve. My focus is on helping people achieve ALL of their goals. Everyone goes through tough times. Some people go through them on their own, but sometimes it takes a professional, unbiased perspective to help. People are the result of both nature (inherited traits) and nurture (environment) which form lenses through which we perceive the world. Through life experience, lenses can become scratched or cloudy. Bring the drive to improve and I will provide the experience, empathy, and knowledge. Let's make them clear again, together, as a team!

I am Certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) an excellent technique that addresses abuse, abandonment, loss, depression, anxiety, and more.
Are you feeling alone, anxious, grieved, or deeply sad? Traumatic events and losses in life are very common, yet rarely discussed. They have a far-reaching impact on our lives, our relationships, our health, our work and our play. Also, research has found that the way we were cared for as children greatly impacts our relationships throughout life. For some of us, this can feel very overwhelming. The good news is that we can heal from past hurts and enjoy more contentment and peace of mind starting today. Using scientifically sound practices, we can actually change the way we think, feel, and relate to others.

What is the goal of therapy for depression?
Therapy for depression has several major goals. One is to relieve the mental pain of depression, which distorts feeling and thinking so that sufferers cannot see beyond their current state of mind or envision feeling better. Another is to give people the mental tools to recognize and correct the kinds of distorted thinking that turn a problem into a catastrophe and lead to despair. Therapy also teaches people how to process negative emotions in constructive ways, so they have more control over their own emotional reactivity. And it helps people regain the ability to see themselves positively, the motivation to do things, and the capacity for pleasure.
What happens in therapy for depression?
Perhaps most important, no matter the type of therapy, patients form an alliance with the therapist; that connection is therapeutic in itself, plus it becomes an instrument of change. Patients learn to identify and to challenge their own erroneous beliefs and thoughts that amplify the effects of negative experiences. They learn to identify situations in which they are especially vulnerable. And they learn new patterns of thinking and behaving. They may be given “homework” assignments in which they practice their developing skills. In addition, good therapists regularly monitor patients to assess whether and how much the condition is improving.
What therapy types help with depression?
Several types of short-term therapy have been found effective, each targeting one or more areas of dysfunction. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps clients challenge their negative thoughts and beliefs, learn new behavioral strategies, and curb reactivity to distressing situations. Behavioral activation (BA) is a form of therapy often used in conjunction with CBT; it focuses on engagement in rewarding activity as a pathway to changing negative feelings and disturbed mood. Another widely used approach is interpersonal therapy (IPT), which targets the social difficulties that both give rise to and get exacerbated by depression. Therapists may combine approaches as needed.
Can therapy for depression be done online?
Studies have found that online therapy can be highly effective for treating depression, although it may be more challenging to build a good therapist-patient alliance on screen than in person—at least at first. However, online therapy can offer considerable advantages. Accessibility and convenience are tops among them. Some people actually find it easier to talk about problems online than in person. While online therapy typically limits visibility of facial expression and body gestures that give important nonverbal cues to a patient’s state of mind, it can give therapists a glimpse into a patient’s world and life, providing information that can be highly useful in guiding therapy.
How effective is therapy for depression?
Many studies show that therapy is highly effective provided that patients complete the prescribed course of therapy, commonly 16 to 20 sessions. Over the long term, it is more effective than medication and the effects are more enduring. As a result, psychotherapy has the power not just to relieve current suffering but to prevent future episodes of the disorder. Therapy reverses the dysfunction in neural circuitry that disposes individuals to a negative view of themselves, the world, and their future and they acquire coping techniques, problem-solving skills, and understanding of their own vulnerabilities that are useful over the course of a lifetime.
