Therapist Overview
My ideal client is struggling with emotion dysregulation and compulsive behaviors in reaction to difficult emotions. They are looking for assistance in managing these emotions, and open to developing a new relationship with their feelings and thoughts in order to pursue what is important to them. I approach counseling from a cognitive-behavioral framework, understanding that our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are inextricably linked to one another. However, I believe that we all have the power to become who we want to be. I utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, assisting my clients to identify their values and live in accordance with them. What you are experiencing is hard. And opening up to talk about it sometimes feels even harder. We all need a helping hand at some point, but reaching out for that help takes so much courage. I commend you for even getting to the point of reading this profile. If you can believe it, things can get so much better if you are willing to reach out.
