Do you feel stuck? Have you noticed you are struggling with maintaining healthy relationships, stress at work or home and/or significant anxiety or depression symptoms? I have worked in a variety of settings, (TBI clinic, psych hospital and private practice.) From this varied experience, I have learned how to help people improve their relationships, communication skills, set boundaries, identify and reach attainable goals and boost their self esteem. Based on your initial assessment we can create a treatment plan that will help you explore and, hopefully, achieve a more comfortable, capable lifestyle. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, the most research backed modality, to help my clients explore how their thoughts and behavior affect their feelings. I recently completed an “Intensive training” in CBT. I also use Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Eye Movement Desentization and Reprocessing. When appropriate, I create a light-hearted space for clients to develop insight into their current and past challenges. The therapeutic relationship is the most important aspect to effective therapy. At the core of my therapy style is deep empathy and validation as my clients struggle and then, hopefully, progress.
