I specialize in helping adults who struggle with anxiety related to relationships, careers, stress, and family issues. These individuals have reported feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and anxious. My approach to counseling is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT). CBT focuses on empowering you to resolve issues independently through exercises during our sessions and "homework" assignments. I assist clients in developing coping skills that enable them to change their thinking, manage problematic emotions, and modify their behavior.

The connection between client and therapist is the main factor necessary for successful therapeutic change. I will help you clarify essential goals, that once achieved will lead to you firing me. By being "client-centered", our sessions will be led by you and I will walk with you during your journey, adding evidence-based information, posing insight-oriented questions and helping present relative information in a novel context (due to my being unbiased). "Firing" your therapist means you feel confident to utilize new skills to better manage life:)

While reaching out for help can feel scary, please know that in therapy you have a lot of control, and I work hard to help you feel safe. My clients often prefer the flexibility that video visits offer. Typically my clients are living stressful lives, may have a history of trauma, or feel overwhelmed. In particular, I'm experienced in working with people living with anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma/PTSD, people in recovery, caregivers and healthcare workers. Everyone is different, and I prefer to shape how we work together based on your individual needs and goals. I see clients virtually in Texas, New Hampshire and Maryland.

Do you notice an increase in anxiety, fear, irritability, poor concentration, self-doubt, and/or struggle to navigate a loss? Are your ways of coping ineffective or maybe adding to your struggles? Is it hard to make sense of why your thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and body are responding as they do, and even more confusing as to how to make it stop? Have you sought medical and pharmaceutical support but want to address the underlying ‘why’, not just numb out the symptoms? You want connection, a sense of belonging within yourself and with others, meaning, and wellness to thrive not just survive.

During this pandemic/quarantine, so many people have been affected by loss and grief. My main focus lately has been helping people who are grieving loss. Grief is often a lonely journey, and those who are not grieving wonder why you aren't "over it" yet. People grieve in many ways and heal on their own timetable. I help clients in their grief journey in a way that makes sense to them without judgment or trying to rush them along.

You’re the strong one. The one everyone comes to for help. The one family, friends, and coworkers rely on. But what if the strong one, the loyal one, the one everyone looks to "fix it," needs support too? What if you could flow through your days without the mental pressure of the “have to” or the guilt of not feeling you’re doing enough? What if you could honor your mental and emotional capacity while setting and maintaining healthy boundaries with yourself and others? What if I told you this was possible?

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.
