Hello Educators and Parents! Are you a busy caregiver struggling to juggle your career and the needs of your family? Are you an educator who is frustrated by "the system", a lack of support and the expectations of your administration? Is stress and anxiety getting in the way when you are supposed to be resting or enjoying your life and family? You are not alone and you are NOT failing in your roles.
I offer talk therapy that will incorporate a multi-faceted approach to your issue(s). By utilizing key components of CBT, DBT and Trauma-Informed Therapy, as they might apply to you, we can together design a format for you to communicate your needs. That communication will lead to learning how to change or how to cope with what can not be changed.
Spending many years as a parent and even more as an educator, I have lived the struggle between career and family. When stress/anxiety or the pressures you experience as a parent or educator get a hold on you. . .your psyche, as well as your life balance, can suffer. Let's work through those issues together and find some kind of peace.

We can not always change our circumstances, but Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) allows us to understand what we feel and why we respond the ways we do. I find CBT is at the base of all of my work. When you need to find a different view of your circumstances, Dialectical Therapy may benefit you. I am also a proponent of Mindfulness and Positive Psychology, as they provide us with tools to cope.
