Relationships have the potential to be deeply fulfilling or immensely frustrating. Especially if they lead to conflict, disagreements, and disconnection. You may have tried therapy before but the issues persist and seem more and more untenable, gnawing at your sense of peace and happiness. As you sleep, you find yourself yearning for a deeper sense of meaning in your relationship. Anything to end the endless cycle of frustration, disappointment & hopelessness. You ask yourself if it's possible to get there.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) that has experience in both individual and group counseling in the mental health and substance abuse fields. I have experience in out-patient counseling and school counseling.

Hundreds of research studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)in working with anxiety, depression, relationship conflicts, anger management and other psychological issues. As CBT has proven itself so beneficial, many therapists employ some of its techniques. But in order to have the best possible outcome with this form of psychotherapy, it is important to find a therapist who has been formally trained and certified in CBT. I am a graduate of the Beck Institute for Cognitive Therapy and Research, established by the founder of CBT, Dr. Aaron Beck, and a member of The Academy of Cognitive Therapy.

Do racing thoughts keep you up at night? Are you constantly worrying? Does everything you do need to be perfect? Do you struggle with change or uncertainty? Are you restless? Having trouble sleeping? Relationship troubles? Fred Rogers once said, “Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary.”

We started the Center for Cognitive Behavior Therapy with one mission: to help children, adolescents, and young adults live more meaningful and productive lives. Both raising a child and being one are tall orders in today’s climate. And having a psychological condition often compounds the challenges. We envision a world where youth can succeed, both in spite of their challenges and because of them; where they will develop and implement the skills to overcome their challenges; and where they believe that they can accomplish anything to which they put their minds.

I know it can feel like a challenge to ask for help - I know because I've done it myself. You've started to reflect on some of the things that have happened to you in life, maybe based on the way you were raised or significant events that have altered your way of living and thinking. You may feel stuck, you want more from your life and you want to change. You understand that in order to make change, you've got to work through some layers of your mind that can be inhibiting your growth. Allowing another person to hold your story with you sounds iffy but there is deep relief in knowing you are not alone.

There is little that I find more uplifting then helping people overcome life's difficulties and freeing themselves to live a life full of peace, joy, and confidence. I believe in the power of each individual to take control of their lives to fully accomplish their goals, feel happy, present and alive. We all benefit from connecting to a trusted source to share deeply with, open ourselves in vulnerable ways to, and all with no risk of judgment. I take great pride in being that person for many and am blessed to do this work. I am eternally grateful that this is my gift and I look forward to sharing it with you.

We live in a high stress, fast paced society which could make it difficult to care for ourselves holistically (mind, body and spirit). This could lead to feeling unbalanced. I can help you identify and reach goals you will need on your path toward wellness. Therapy can help you relieve emotional stress and symptoms, realize your fullest potential and empower you to make positive, lasting changes in your life. In therapy, you will learn about yourself through looking within, develop skills and increase mindfulness as you become better able to confront life stress and obstacles you may be faced with.

I use a client centered approach to support individuals, couples, and families. Shouldn't all approaches be client centered? The short answer is YES! The term "client centered" refers to a counseling technique. It means that I welcome you into the process as the unique individual that you are. You enter the counseling relationship with your own perspective, based on your life history and relationship experiences. Using evidence-based therapeutic techniques, I will work together with you to identify the strategies that best support your specific goals for therapy with an emphasis on goal driven, cognitive-behavioral approaches.
