I began my career as a registered nurse. After working in several areas of medical care, I settled into thirteen years as a psychiatric nurse attending to the care of children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. During this time, I returned to graduate school to complete my master of social work degree. Since finishing, I have practiced as a therapist, in a community clinic, and in a private clinic. Two years ago, I opened my own independent practice and continue with that today. My approach to counseling adults is based in cognitive -behavioral theory, better known as "talk therapy."

For trauma, I offer Evidence-Based Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD (CPT) in 12-weekly visits & 1-month follow-up appointment.
Have you been experiencing the effects of a trauma(s) for way too long and you don’t want to keep rehashing the event in therapy, in other words, are you looking for a less confrontational therapy than what is typically offered? Are you now to the point that you have decided to commit to change and are agreeable to engage in 14 visits via video telehealth? I believe the client is the expert of themselves and I have additional tools through training, education, and experience to be part of a team approach with the client in the process of recovering from a traumatic event(s), as they are defined by Criterion A in the DSM-5 for PTSD.

I am versed in using treatment modalities such as CBT , DBT, Ecumenical Spiritual Counseling, Mindfulness, & Interpersonal Psychotherapy.
I have over two decades of experience working with individuals seeking to improve their emotional & spiritual health. During this time I have seen first hand how difficult it can be for individuals to admit that they are struggling with their thoughts and emotions and their overall emotional health. It is even more challenging to have the courage to seek out and ask for assistance and help. The good news I want to share is that when I've had the opportunity to work with someone asking for help, that individual is able to improve their mental health and grow to experience their thoughts and emotions with depth and positivity.

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.
