Are you struggling with anxiety, depression or social isolation? Do you feel overwhelmed by daily living, work, relationships, or health symptoms? Are you trying really hard and still left feeling like you aren't managing very well? My clients often come to therapy feeling stuck and wanting to feel better. I offer a safe place and support so you can learn better ways to cope and manage your distress. My clientele includes individuals with chronic illness or pain, health anxiety, empty nest/retirees, and adults ages 21+ with neurodiversity/autism spectrum.
My interventions include Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and Positive Behavior Strategies (PBS).
You are doing your best with your existing experiences and my role is to help you understand your experiences and make positive changes so you are living your best life. I offer you very practical guidance grounded in evidence-based interventions with empathy and compassion. Every individual has the capacity to grow and change and I will help you.
