I use an eclectic approach with a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic background to treat adolescents and adults.
You may be thinking, “I just don’t feel like myself.” but don’t know where to start to feel better. Did you imagine your life would be at a different place by now? Sometimes as great as family and friends are, they may not truly understand and an outside unbiased perspective is helpful. I know that it can be hard to reach out for help, let alone find a therapist who is right for you. I provide my clients with a warm, supportive, non-judgmental space to help empower you and give you the coping skills needed to live the life you deserve.

I have many years of experience working with children, adults, and families with anxiety, depression, building conflict resolution skills, anger management difficulties, social skills difficulties, grief, self-harm, and behavioral issues.
Has your anxiety been rearing its head? Anxiety/worry were put in overdrive due to this pandemic. There is so much uncertainty and feelings of being uncomfortable in situations we never had a problem with before. Our ways of coping were either taken away or we had to adapt. There have been many transitions and unknowns that we still are coping with. I am here to tell you that Anxiety/Worry is predictable and only wants 2 things: Certainty and to be Comfortable. Anxiety cannot be taken away BUT you can with work through the anxiety. Take back the power and learn to be confident that you can deal with whatever comes your way.

Children with ADHD and executive function disorder face the daily struggle of not meeting expectations. Expectations come at them from so many sources: school, home, peers, extra-curricular activities, and more. The constant feeling that they are falling short or disappointing teachers and parents creates enormous stress and impacts their sense of self-worth, thus resulting in depression, anxiety and acting out behaviors. Ever feel like you, as the parent, are at a loss as to why your child is acting out or how to help them to keep up with the demands around them?

You are exhausted all the time and often think you just can't do it anymore. On the outside, it seems like you have it all it. You’re accomplished, driven, and dependable. But on the inside, you never feel good enough and the voice in your head often reminds you of all the ways you’re falling short. You're tired of giving so much to everyone else while you continue to come last on your list. Not anymore. Now is the time to prioritize yourself and make a positive change.

Behavioral Issues Therapists
What happens in therapy for behavioral issues?
No matter the type of therapy, individuals form an alliance with the therapist; that connection is often therapeutic in itself, plus it becomes an instrument of change. Individuals learn to identify situations that are especially troublesome for them and acquire new patterns of thinking and behaving. In therapy for ADHD, one of the most common behavior issues for children, individuals learn how to improve frustration tolerance, control impulsivity, manage attentional focus, and gain skills of self-organisation.
What therapy types help with behavioral issues?
Many types of therapy have been found effective, each targeting one or more areas of dysfunction. Perhaps best-known and most widely tested is cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT), in which individuals learn new behavioral strategies and curb reactivity to frustrating or distressing situations that trigger disruptive behaviour. Anger, anxiety, mood disorders, impulse control problems are commonly addressed in CBT. Family therapy or parent management training is often helpful to reduce parent-child conflict and behavioral difficulties at home.
How long does therapy last for behavioral issues?
Among popular approaches to treating behavioral concerns, CBT is considered a short-term therapy intended to be administered in 15 to 20 weekly sessions. Parent training in behavior management, often used when the underlying cause of behavior issues is ADHD in children under 12, usually occurs in weekly sessions for 8 to 16 weeks. When behavioral issues stem from persistent aggression or defiance, therapy may last for months, and usually targets both children and their parents.
How effective is therapy for behavior issues?
Studies show that therapy for behavior issues in children is highly effective and may prevent the development of antisocial behavior later in life. Family intervention—parent management training or family therapy, both of which involve parents and children together—is considered most effective, notably for children under age 12 who persistently engage in aggressive, defiant, rule-breaking or other disruptive behavior. Whether provided alone or in combination with medication, CBT is highly effective in helping people regulate their emotions, and for people with ADHD, it addresses impulsiveness, hyperactivity and attentional focus.
