Life can be challenging and sometimes overwhelming. Therapy is a safe place where you can understand yourself better and learn how to use tools to cope with depression, anxiety, and substance use which often creates more stress and relationship/family problems. Whether you are struggling with school or work, I can provide you with meaningful strategies and support to help you through this difficult time.
Click on my website link to learn more about my services including how to schedule a virtual or in person appointment.
My approach to therapy is supportive and focused on helping you to see life differently and approach problems more effectively. I specialize in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a form of therapy that helps you understand the relationship between what you do (behaviors), what you feel (feelings) and what you think (thoughts).
My specialties include supervision and training of counselors and providing counseling for the treatment of anxiety, depression, sexuality, educational/learning issues, relationship problems, GLBTQ, and substance abuse using evidence-based treatment that has been shown to be effective. I am also a certified teacher and school counselor.
