I enjoy working with people who have addictions or anxiety or something else weighing them down, working with them for a relatively short period of time, and watching them become energized and passionate about their lives.
I believe that my clients know themselves better than anyone else. I work to help my clients achieve their goals.
I believe I can best serve people by using what research has shown to be effective.
I do not believe therapy should take a long time; most of my clients graduate within 3-6 months. I work on an time-sensitive basis so some require more sessions.
I use Cognitive Therapy techniques with demonstrated effectiveness to help people challenge patterns of thinking and behaving that are no longer functional. I help clients develop the skills they need to deal more effectively with whatever is going on in their lives, whether in the present or from the past.
I am certified in Cognitive Therapy.
I spend time on relapse-prevention for when life throws a curve (sorry, I wish I could say people never had any more problems). I love follow-up calls from people still coping well.
