I utilize a variety of evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution Focused Therapy.
While you are uniquely special, your struggles are more common than you think. We all have challenges, and often in very universal ways. It’s all part of the human experience. I believe in the power of processing feelings and experiences as a way of helping us make sense of them. It can be profoundly healing to have a safe space in which to be affirmed and productively challenged. Together we can explore issues related to ambivalence, shame, resilience, boundaries, connection, confidence, and self-development in order to help you fully show up in your life.

You’re exhausted. There’s no end to your “to-do” list, and anxiety begins creeping in. You’re completely paralyzed by procrastination while the smallest decisions immobilize you. You feel like you’re failing in all areas of your life. You try to keep a smile on your face that says, “I’ve got it this,” but it’s fading. You can’t wait to get home where you don’t need to pretend. The depression takes over, and all you want to do is hide from the world. It’s a cycle from which you can’t escape. You’re stuck, but your mind is racing. Nothing is enjoyable anymore. Stop the cycle of isolation. It’s time for some help.

Sometimes we build executive function skills to bolster our flourishing in life. Sometimes we learn how to give time and space to thoughts, feelings, emotions, and actions to improve our personal self-mastery. Sometimes we shift the memories of the past to support ourselves as we craft the future we've always wanted. Come with possible goals and we'll chart a plan together. Let's see how the pieces all fit together.

Motivational Interviewing Therapists
How does motivational interviewing work?
Motivational interviewing aims to uncover a person’s internal motivation to change their life. Toward this end, the therapist listens, empathizes, and collaborates with the client based on their perspective; the therapist doesn’t adhere to a predetermined plan for change or impose their viewpoint on the client. Discovering an individual’s most important reasons for change, and guiding them to achieve those changes, can empower people to shift from ambivalence to action.
Is motivational interviewing evidence-based?
Yes, research shows that motivational interviewing can help treat alcohol and substance use — and in different ways such as reducing drinking, reducing resistance, and increasing the likelihood of staying in treatment. Motivational interviewing has also been shown to help people lose weight, adhere to medication regimens, improve diet for those with Type II diabetes, and improve healthy behaviors in children.
How long does motivational interviewing last?
Motivational interviewing is a short-term therapy that can last just one or two sessions. In some cases, motivational interviewing may be used in conjunction with longer-term therapies, but for most people, motivational interviewing is a brief intervention that aims to help patients understand their personal, specific, and internal reasons for changing their life.
What differentiates motivational interviewing from person-centered therapy?
In person-centered therapy, the individual is in the driver’s seat of the treatment process, creating space for them to trust their instincts and arrive at their own solutions. The two approaches are similar because motivational interviewing is also client-centered; however, person-centered therapy is more open-ended while motivational interviewing is somewhat more structured; the goal is to change, and the therapist helps the client specifically discover their internal motivations to modify their behavior.
