Undoubtedly the human condition is complex. However, I have found that individuals across cultures have an innate tendency to think in unhelpful ways and engage in acts of self-defeat, even despite their best efforts not to! Common self-defeating behaviors that I help others with include: avoidance/decision conflicts, isolation, procrastination, passive and/or aggressive communication, substance, sex, gambling, technology addiction. Self-defeating behaviors are often closely linked to unhealthy negative emotions that you may also be experiencing such as: depression, anxiety, anger, guilt, shame, hurt, envy, and jealousy.

My clients are mostly adolescents and adults, but I will see children who are capable of handling the telehealth format.
