If you've been in a slump, need answers, or your life feels out of control, speaking to a therapist may be just the thing to get you through this time of your life. Therapists are not alike. We bring with us our personalities and skill sets, and that's ok! Maybe you've never been to a therapist. Maybe you've been to several. My focus is on your goals (so, start thinking about what you want out of therapy). I use a very cerebral approach to your healing. We will identify, dissect, and reformulate the way you see the world around you in a loving and compassionate environment. If you're ready for change, then I'm your gal.

Need help today? I have openings! It's been a rough few years—thanks, 2020! But I see you. I know you've been running yourself ragged trying to make your life work. You're exhausted, dissatisfied, and increasingly uninspired. People are trying to compliment you, saying 'You're doing great!' but you get in your head, and it's a negative spiral. You used to thrive, but now you feel lost, lonely, and dissatisfied. Your anxiety and depression are keeping you stuck, so you find yourself coping with your new best friend Netflix and withdrawing from life. Something has to change!

The world has felt heavy the past few years and there just seems to be never ending pressures and stress. It’s common to experience anxiety, depression, chronic stress, relationship difficulties and feelings of isolation. Past trauma might also be impacting you more, interfering with your overall mood and day to day life. You are not alone. These experiences, while common, are not something that you have to suffer through. By working through these challenges in therapy, you will feel better again and find balance and re-connection in your life.

I began clinical work with individuals, couples, and families in 2000, and have developed a strong interest in four areas: (1) core principles of healing, growth, and success in our efforts to change, (2) character strengths and virtues central to any "good" we create in ourselves and with others, (3) the inevitability of "relationship" in daily living - the "what" and "how" of it, and (4) the reality that clients are the gatekeepers of change and true heroes in their own success stories! I have learned that addressing our problems ultimately involves drawing on our strengths and the best that lies within us and our relationships!

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists

How does solution-focused therapy work?

The treatment works by helping a client notice which behaviors and thoughts have positive results on their lives and building a plan around how to maximise these strengths. Practitioners of solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) believe that individuals already have the experience, wisdom, and resilience to create change in their lives, but may need a guide to help them realise which changes to make and how to make them.

Is solution-focused brief therapy evidence-based?

Yes. Solution-focused brief therapy has been extensively studied, and researchers find strong evidence that it’s an effective treatment for many behavioral and psychological concerns. This may be due to the uplifting nature and practicality of the treatment, which allows patients to employ strategies to reach their goals that are incremental and achievable.

How long does solution-focused brief therapy last?

Solution-focused brief therapy, as the name implies, is brief. The timeline may vary from person to person, given the challenges they face and their situation in life, but treatment is typically complete within four to eight sessions. This therapy type is a pragmatic one: it’s concerned more with “how” problems can be addressed and improved than getting to the root of “why” they exist in the first place.

Is solution-focused brief therapy a type of cognitive behavioral therapy?

Solution-focused brief therapy is related to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)in that both are pragmatic approaches that deal less with gaining a full understanding of the cause of a mental health problem and more with creating plans for how to cope with these problems and improve an individual’s day-to-day life. They are distinct, however, in that SFBT emphasises building on strengths and resources, while CBT focuses on changing negative thoughts and behaviors.
