I have experience assisting clients with various concerns including anxiety, depression, social isolation, relationship concerns, academic performance concerns, oppositional defiant behaviors, grief/ loss and more.
I believe one of the bravest things you can do is to face the deep and dark areas of your story, come eye to eye with your fears, and believe that you deserve to live a life of peace and fulfillment. Having a counselor who will meet you where you are in your process and provide a safe environment, can help reduce nervousness associated with starting counseling services. I want to help you process life events, challenge destructive thinking, improve your ability to navigate difficult situations, and live a fulfilling life.

I treat Panic attacks/anxiety, Depression, Grief, Adjustment Disorder, Career Counseling, Becoming Healthier, PTSD, Childhood Sexual Trauma, Divorce or breakups, and Domestic Violence.
The modality I use the most is CBT. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the most versatile therapy. It is based on the theory that what one thinks, affects one's emotions, which then results in how one behaves. The goal of therapy is to alter the behavior you want to change. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for most patients. CBT is based on the proven method of altering how you think about with whatever you might be trying to deal. CBT is thoughts affect feelings which affect behavior. I take it one step further. How you talk about a problem directly affects what you think and feel.

Grief Therapists

How long does therapy take for grief?

There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.

When should you seek therapy for grief?

Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.

Can grief be managed without therapy?

Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.

What happens if grief is left untreated?

Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
