Having been a therapist since 2004, I have worked with a range of clients, such as co-dependency, anger, OCD, phobias, panic disorders, and PTSD & trauma with individuals, couples, and families, and I have learned that every client is vastly different. One thing that is the same is that the goal for the client is always moving towards living the kind of life they want. That looks different for everyone because we all have our own values. But the stronger our values, the harder it can be to accept ourselves and others. I help clients find that balance for themselves,
Many practitioners say they are Cognitive-Behavioral Therapists but miss one key element: ultimately teaching clients how to be their own therapists. This might not be the best business model, but in the end, having a client improve enough not to need you is as golden as life gets.
What I find clients want the most is to feel validated. This is undoubtedly important and required, but it's just not enough to make true, lasting change. My clients see me as compassionate, funny, and, most importantly, I am not the type of therapist who sits back and nods their head the entire session. I challenge clients and get results without judgment.

I was initially trained in Family therapy behind a two-way mirror, which was invaluable. I then became interested in Cognitive-behavioral therapy and became certified in various types of CBT. I saw the most success with OCD and codependent clients which then became my specialties.

My approach centers around the concept of the "Inner Critic" that haunts us daily, telling us why we're not good enough and/or why others aren't as well. For OCD, I use Exposure and Response Prevention but also have found that inference-based Cognitive-behavioral therapy (iCBT) gives clients more than just facing their fears and accepting them. iCBT actually decreases obsessional doubt over time!

For individual clients, the modality used is tailored to their specific goals. I don't believe in throwing techniques at clients. For couples and families, I believe a lot in a team approach. You may not always be happy with your teammate, but you must coexist nonetheless.
