Therapist Overview
I work with individuals (ages 14 & up) looking for relief, a change, direction, & for things to not feel so hard anymore. I am licensed to see patients state-wide in CA & PA & have an online teletherapy practice. My treatment style focuses on working to help patients gain a better understanding of what is going on then teach strategies to reframe thoughts, reverse negative thinking, & build confidence. The reason I am able to achieve great results with my patients is that I help them figure out what factors & maladaptive patterns get in the way & work with them to alter these patterns so they can reach their full potential. Patients experience growth as they are actively involved in creating a plan to build effective skills, strategies, & confidence, resulting in changes in behavior & functioning. These plans are reinforced by individualized exercises I suggest, which are implemented outside of therapy sessions to allow patients to practice skills and strategies. When you work with me, you can expect to feel my support & encouragement. I am direct, provide education & challenge you to meet your goals and potential. You can certainly anticipate humor & laughter, to feel hopeful, & have a space to share things you are proud of & that matter.
