My clinical approach is based in cognitive behavior therapy, thus focusing on replacing harmful belief systems with truthful belief systems that will allow you to heal and grow. However, the theories I use are eclectic because each person needs an individualized approach. I have a particular heart to restore and improve marriages, recognizing the value of the family system in our society. This is done by connecting spouses with positive input, rather than focusing on problems, as well as teaching tools and skills to maintain a healthy marriage.

Adolescent and Adult anxiety is my thing! So many people don’t understand how powerless anxiety can make you feel. We will work together to develop new tools to help create the peace and happiness you are looking for. My favorite review from a client starts like this: “ I think about you all the time! I’m sure at times it didn’t seem like I was listening but your words and lessons are ones I treasure dearly and live by daily. You’re like my zen subconscious I turn to when things get prickly. Thank you for believing in me when I couldn’t believe in myself”

Interpersonal Therapists

Is interpersonal therapy evidence-based?

Studies have found interpersonal therapy to be effective for life transitions including retirement, divorce, and job loss. Also, some studies have found it to be just as useful as medication and other therapy approaches. The benefits of interpersonal therapy can last long after treatment has been completed; the individual can use the tenets of this therapy throughout their life.

How long does interpersonal therapy take?

Interpersonal psychotherapy is normally time-limited and focuses on specific problems in the client’s everyday relationships. Treatment can be either one-on-one or take place in a group setting; it tends to last 12 to 16 weeks, depending on the individual client’s needs. If a new interpersonal problem arises in the future, the client may require additional therapy to address it specifically. The timeline and session schedule may vary depending on the client’s challenges as well as their progress. Treatment may conclude with wrap-up sessions to review the client’s accomplishments.

Is interpersonal therapy effective?

Research shows that interpersonal therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of conditions such as depression or anxiety. The approach may also offer a range of benefits that are hard to measure but valuable—including healthier relationships and improved feelings of self-worth. The therapist will give the client practical solutions that can be put into practice. The brief duration of this therapy also means that clients can see changes in their relationships fairly quickly.

What are the limitations of interpersonal therapy?

Interpersonal therapy may not effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as psychosis, chronic illness, or alcohol relapse. Because it is short-term in nature, it may not be the best approach for conditions that need to be tracked, though maintenance sessions are a viable approach under these circumstances.

Can interpersonal psychotherapy be done online?

Yes, interpersonal psychotherapy can be conducted effectively either in-person or online. A therapist with expertise in IPT will be able to adjust their techniques, such as role-playing, to better suit the online environment. Offering online IPT can make it more accessible for clients who have transportation difficulties; it also provides the ideal opportunity to explore challenges unique to digital relationships.
