Currently accepting new clients. If you are searching for ways to change or improve something in your life (i.e. tackling out-of-control stress levels, enhancing communication with significant others, handling criticism more effectively, dealing with difficult individuals, handling challenging situations at work, home, or in relationships), then Solution Focused Brief Therapy is for you. Engage in solution talk. Clients leave with next steps, even after one session. A tri-phase model, clients articulate their hopes and dreams for their lives and leave with concrete next steps to reach those goals. Approach suitable for all ages.
Solution Focused Brief Therapy moves away from problem-talk, toward solution building. Instead of focusing our time and energy on analyzing what is wrong or problematic, this specific type of therapy helps clients see what is needed and wanted, building on client successes, strengths, resources, and goals. SF focuses on activating possibility and hope.
I invite you to try something different. If you are looking to experience the power of positive psychology at work, then solution focused brief therapy is for you. You will feel validated, accepted, and genuinely listened to. We will set goals that are positive, small, and behavioral. You leave with a plan for exploring and clarifying those same goals.

For treating depression and anxiety related concerns, I would normally work with you for 8 sessions with Solution Focused Brief Therapy. We might delve into other empirical therapy approaches, which we will decide upon together. Most clients experience symptom relief within the first sessions. One session can allow for change to be experienced. There is consistent improvement as we progress.

I often use Solution Focused Brief Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progess. With SFBT, we'll look more intensely at "what's wanted" rather than "what's the problem". During treatment, I'll help you to construct goals and strive towards those goals, to make lasting life changes.
