I have extensive experience in working with people with depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and relational difficulties.
I am passionate about what I do. I believe you already have inside of you the ability to make the changes you want in your life. I love to see people find healing by taking captive their self defeating thoughts and making changes in their behavior. I know the most important thing I can do as a therapist is build a trusting relationship with the people who come into my office.

Interpersonal process groups help change unhealthy relationship patterns. As group members interact, their relational patterns reveal themselves. Members learn the advantages and disadvantages of their interpersonal style, how they affect others, what role they take in groups (caretaker, black sheep, mascot, etc.), and what their blind spots are. Having this understanding gives members the freedom to test healthier ways of relating with other group members before testing them outside the group. Because relationships are a major contributor to symptoms, IPT groups are helpful for a wide range of problems and diagnoses. Check my website for more info. www.okcpsychology.com
The effects can present in a wide range of symptoms and diagnoses including anxiety, depression, dissociation, trouble concentrating, OCD, sleep problems, chronic health conditions, and low self-esteem.
(Accepting New Patients) I help people discover the blind spots, inner conflicts, and unconscious patterns that have secretly blocked their attempts to heal. Discovering these unconscious blocks allows us to create a flexible and personalized treatment plan to manage your symptoms and treat the underlying causes. Working with me feels similar to physical therapy: soothing at times and challenging at others, but ultimately, healing.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy as a modality offers a skill-based approach to treatment. In DBT psycho-educational groups, the group will focus on emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, mindfulness and distress tolerance efforts to manage and build a life worth living. DBT Groups will be private pay as psycho-educational DBT groups are innately different than group therapy and aren't covered by insurance. If comprehensive DBT is what you are seeking, DBT groups will be mandatory and will be discussed when discussing treatment coordination. DBT psycho-education groups can and are helpful for anyone wanting to benefit in outlined skill sets above.

I am passionate about helping children who are in families going through the tough stuff. I believe children learn and heal best through play. I also enjoy working with adolescents, families, and individual adults. I believe we were created to live in connection with others. The nature of sharing our burdens and hardships with another human who is listening and showing empathy is healing in itself. It is my goal in therapy to create a safe space where you feel heard. We are not promised a life free of hardships but we can journey through it together.

Depression Support Groups
What is the goal of therapy for depression?
Therapy for depression has several major goals. One is to relieve the mental pain of depression, which distorts feeling and thinking so that sufferers cannot see beyond their current state of mind or envision feeling better. Another is to give people the mental tools to recognize and correct the kinds of distorted thinking that turn a problem into a catastrophe and lead to despair. Therapy also teaches people how to process negative emotions in constructive ways, so they have more control over their own emotional reactivity. And it helps people regain the ability to see themselves positively, the motivation to do things, and the capacity for pleasure.
What happens in therapy for depression?
Perhaps most important, no matter the type of therapy, patients form an alliance with the therapist; that connection is therapeutic in itself, plus it becomes an instrument of change. Patients learn to identify and to challenge their own erroneous beliefs and thoughts that amplify the effects of negative experiences. They learn to identify situations in which they are especially vulnerable. And they learn new patterns of thinking and behaving. They may be given “homework” assignments in which they practice their developing skills. In addition, good therapists regularly monitor patients to assess whether and how much the condition is improving.
What therapy types help with depression?
Several types of short-term therapy have been found effective, each targeting one or more areas of dysfunction. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps clients challenge their negative thoughts and beliefs, learn new behavioral strategies, and curb reactivity to distressing situations. Behavioral activation (BA) is a form of therapy often used in conjunction with CBT; it focuses on engagement in rewarding activity as a pathway to changing negative feelings and disturbed mood. Another widely used approach is interpersonal therapy (IPT), which targets the social difficulties that both give rise to and get exacerbated by depression. Therapists may combine approaches as needed.
Can therapy for depression be done online?
Studies have found that online therapy can be highly effective for treating depression, although it may be more challenging to build a good therapist-patient alliance on screen than in person—at least at first. However, online therapy can offer considerable advantages. Accessibility and convenience are tops among them. Some people actually find it easier to talk about problems online than in person. While online therapy typically limits visibility of facial expression and body gestures that give important nonverbal cues to a patient’s state of mind, it can give therapists a glimpse into a patient’s world and life, providing information that can be highly useful in guiding therapy.
How effective is therapy for depression?
Many studies show that therapy is highly effective provided that patients complete the prescribed course of therapy, commonly 16 to 20 sessions. Over the long term, it is more effective than medication and the effects are more enduring. As a result, psychotherapy has the power not just to relieve current suffering but to prevent future episodes of the disorder. Therapy reverses the dysfunction in neural circuitry that disposes individuals to a negative view of themselves, the world, and their future and they acquire coping techniques, problem-solving skills, and understanding of their own vulnerabilities that are useful over the course of a lifetime.
