Therapist Overview
I work with adults, couples and teenagers. My approach is a blend of Family Systems Theory, cognitive behavioral therapy and positive psychology. I believe the quality of our lives is mostly determined by the quality of our relationships, so my work often involved teaching communication skills, resolving conflict and applying the new but vast amount of scientific research about relationships to your own lives. We can’t control the events in our lives or our feelings, but we can control our behavior and thoughts. Counseling is learning to do just that. It’s educational, inspiring and helpful in so many ways! Discovering thoughts that make up our belief system, we can identify distorted beliefs and change them. This can result in our feelings calming down and our behavior improving. Our more accurate and appropriate beliefs can allow us to use the tools of positive psychology to truly live a life of well being, increasing our happiness.
