You may be asking, “Well, how are you going to do that?” Good question, by utilizing cognitive behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and through a trauma-informed lens.
Have you found yourself in the space of feeling hopeless, anxious, or helpless after having a baby? Do you often experience thoughts that are uncomfortable or are not a reflection of who you know yourself to be? Are you on a journey to bring life into this world and struggling with feeling hopeless? Are you playing the blame game? Have you experienced the loss of a pregnancy? If you have experienced any of these and notice they are affecting your relationships with others. I want to provide a safe space for you as you maneuver through stressors such as pregnancy loss, infertility, birthing plans, and the perinatal/postpartum period.

When working with my clients, I draw from multiple therapeutic styles including systemic approaches, polyvagal theory, attachment-based theories, and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral theory.
Watch video bio on my website! When someone comes into my office, they are seeking change. Maybe you’re stuck in an ongoing trauma response that you just can’t shake. Maybe those you love the most have hurt you or you’ve hurt them. Perhaps you know logically how you’d like to interact with healthy sexuality, but your reality is far from that. I get all of that. I work with clients for these reasons and more. I help clients not only become unstuck, but find their lost, true self so they can walk in freedom and renewed relationships.

Getting off track? Losing your morals? Outgrowing your circle? Becoming the best version of yourself is something we all want, but the who, what, when, where and how we get there may seem harder to achieve. I'm curious to know what's in your “tool bag." We all come in to life with one. However, our exposure and experiences determine the make up of our bag and how we use those tools.

Understanding yourself, your personality structure, and the world around you is a great asset. It allows you to clearly articulate your values and to set a life-course oriented toward what brings you meaning and fulfillment. Often, clinical symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and personality difficulties can obscure a clear vision of our ideal path. Clinical psychology uses the scientific understanding of behavior and mental health difficulties as the basis for strategic guidance in helping you overcome clinical and life issues.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists

How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?

Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.

When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?

It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.

How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?

To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.

Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?

CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
