It can be difficult searching for a therapist you feel comfortable enough with so that you can finally get through painful and sensitive issues, I know, I've been there. That's why my number one goal is to build a trusting therapeutic relationship with you as the client.

Recovery from substance use disorders, trauma, bipolar disorder and depression, and anxiety disorders requires rediscovering who you truly are; coping skills help, but are not enough.
I have been counseling adolescents, children, and adults since 2010 to overcome substance use disorders, trauma, depression, anxiety and more. Therapy involves active participation from the client and the therapist so that the focus of therapy is always on the client and his/her goals. Sometimes clients know exactly what they need out of therapy; other times the client discovers new goals to achieve over the course of a few sessions. Therapy has the potential to help you better understand yourself and how you experience the world.

I focus on a wide variety of issues, such as depression/bipolar, PTSD, and domestic violence.
If Depression, Past Traumas, and Anxiety are lowering the quality of your life, I would love to help. My approach of treatment focuses more on Understanding and Exploration in a safe and accepting environment, rather than that old "fix a broken person" model. Together, we can work towards insight and growth, which I believe in return will increase the quality of your relationships and life. I feel if we can widen our spectrum of thinking, it can widen our spectrum of feeling, which then widens our spectrum of choosing and reacting to the perpetual challenges of this very uncertain and demanding world.

I provide a candid, liberating, validating and irreverent experience for my clients, centered around self-discovery and creating a life worth living. I attract clients that have grown weary of the traditional therapy and want someone who's honest with them. I know what it's like to manage a personality disorder and how hard it can be to find the right treatment provider when you've finally have the right diagnosis. As a therapist who has experienced trauma, I’ve also heard a lot of smack talk about treating someone with BPD. The stigma I've experienced has fueled my interest in specializing in treating BPD and mood disorders.

As humans, we experience change. At times change is welcomed and at other times change can cause distress. As a relational therapist with advanced trainings in Gottman techniques, I work with couples in facilitating change which can have the potential to promote secure attachment and trusting relationship. Individual therapy looks a bit different, though we are still impacted by the relationships we experience in the cycle of life. From birth, relationships shape who we become, how we behave, and in how we see and experience the world. Therapy allows for the exploration of these lived-experiences and impact on us as individuals.

Bipolar Disorder Therapists
What is the most successful approach to treating bipolar disorder?
Living with bipolar disorder can be challenging, and a number of therapies have been found effective in providing support to patients as they gain the skills to understand and manage the disorder. Family-focused therapy is often helpful for children and teens (the majority of cases develop before age 19); it aims to minimize mood cycling by improving family communication and reducing conflict. It also helps young people navigate the developmental challenges the disorder can create. Cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) and variants such as Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)help patients manage the thoughts and feelings that influence bipolar mood swings as well as develop specific behavioral strategies to counteract them.
What happens in therapy for bipolar disorder?
Because the patterns of mood switching and its triggers differ for each person and can change over time, mood tracking or monitoring becomes a basic way patients learn about the nature of their condition. One of the most common features of therapy is finding a workable method of mood monitoring, in which patients track their daily activities and rate their moods, then use the findings to adjust routines accordingly. Patients learn ways of handling the many stresses that arise in life so that they do not trigger mood swings.
What kinds of problems does therapy help with?
Like many other mental health disorders, BPD is heavily influenced by stress; therapy provides skills for coping with stressors of all kinds. Therapy is extremely important for helping individuals identify the situations that may trigger mood switching, so that mood swings can be prevented. Therapy may especially target recognition of the early stages of mood change so that they can be managed. In addition, therapy helps patients deal with the significant amount of turbulence the disorder can create in relationships and in work life.
What is the goal of therapy for bipolar disorder?
Therapy helps patients set up their lives to maintain stability so that their mood isn’t constantly threatened by daily events. Perhaps the first task of therapy is to educate people about the nature of the disorder. At the same time, a primary goal of therapy is to enhance adherence to drug treatment. Extended periods of mood stability can prompt patients to discontinue medication, triggering relapse, while the early phases of manic episodes can feel so energizing that patients stop medication, ushering in full-blown mania and the altered self-perception that can lead to destructive behaviors. Another major goal of therapy is to understand one’s mood patterns so as to minimize both the frequency and intensity of mood cycling.
