As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I believe our thoughts, perceptions, and life experiences have a significant impact on our feelings and behavior. My approach will help uncover how your life experiences may have shaped maladaptive thoughts and perceptions that are at the root of undesired behaviors and episodes of stress, anxiety, and depression. But that's not enough! With Mindfulness, we'll discover creative ways to recognize thought and perception patterns that may not be working for you and replace these patterns with ones that help you reach your goals.

As an adult in today’s society the pressures and stress take their toll on our mental health. I work with adults, helping them develop the skills necessary to successfully navigate life’s stressors. My work addresses a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, divorce and other family issues, substance abuse and dependence, trauma, stage of life issues, professional stresses and transitions, and deeper exploration of emotional, psychological and spiritual issues. I use a mix of approaches designed to help my patients gain insight and deal with the core issues they wish to address.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

If you are struggling with relationships, codependency or anger, let's talk. Codependent behaviors like people pleasing, low self-esteem and giving too much create unhealthy, one-sided relationships. Healing from codependent relationships starts with you, not getting others to change. Maybe you're already in recovery but need more individualized help. Anger management is another area. Whether your explode or stuff your anger, you can learn how to handle emotions in healthy way. Relationships and self-esteem improve when you have the skills it takes to take care of yourself and communicate effectively. You're not alone!

Life events appear to be coming at us from so many different angles these days. As adults, we are doing our best to keep our heads above the water and not drown in feelings of anxiety and stress. Trying to maintaining healthy relationships, stable employment and even parenting skills can leave us feeling exhausted and discouraged at the end of the day. I am able to provide insight into daily life struggles, past trauma's impacting current functioning and repeated unhealthy patterns which often times leads to emotional turmoil and disconnection.

You feel caged up with no where to go. You desire a day or night off, but if you ever get it you don't know what to do with yourself. You are feeling restless. Your life feels like it is passing you by day in and day out. You have plans and dreams, but the reality of life is making them more and more unreachable. Many days you walk around feeling cloudy and find it hard to make any traction. Helplessness has set in and there does not seem to be any answers to feeling better other than temporary fixes that are proving to be a problem for others around you. Dissatisfaction and disappointment and lack of purpose show up daily.

We understand asking for help may not come easy and can be a difficult process. We believe taking those first few steps are one of many ways we believe can impact your quality of life. We take note of each significant accomplishment and celebrate success and help individuals increase self-confidence and awareness.
