Do you find yourself struggling with how to manage feelings of worry and sadness? Do these feelings have a negative impact on your relationships, self esteem and day to day functioning. I provide outpatient psychotherapy for individuals who are struggling to make sense of their emotions and have a desire to learn how to manage them better. I strongly believe people have the ability to make positive life change and that therapy is a collaborative effort. By working together, you can learn to become more successful with how to channel your emotions into more effective behaviors and thoughts.
Among several therapeutic modalities, I am well versed in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I utilize this evidenced based treatment to help with chronic distress. I also combine this with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for the most effective outcomes.
You have untapped growth, strength and resilience! Reaching out for help is a sign of that strength and is the first step to well-being and greater peace of mind.
