Is it so hard to believe that you can choose to let go of suffering? I know it sounds absurd, but most of our struggles come from holding on to both positive and negative emotions. Trying to stretch out the moments we have in joy and peace, wishing for more time in the company of those we love, or simply hoping for better weather on a rainy day can be just as much a source of anxiety and depression as more obviously negative or disappointing events. I understand what it's like to feel stuck and unfulfilled even in the presence of love, kindness, and the support of others. It is the natural consequence of not letting go of wanting.

Whether the issue is addictions, depression, relationships or behavior at school, sometimes we get stuck in patterns that prevent us from being healthy and happy. In general, I view the therapeutic process as a means to help my clients get themselves unstuck. I enjoy incorporating your spiritual or religious practice into the therapeutic process, working with different ethnic groups and welcome LGBTQ clients.

At times an individual may want extra support to talk about and or explore areas in their life that are causing stress: It can lead to anxiety, depression, mood changes, substance use, compulsive behaviors, and anger. If anyone of these emotional or behavioral issues become significant it can affect relationships, education, finances or day to day functioning. In session, the individual will examine past, present and future experiences that impact thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. There are appropriate and inappropriate ways to better cope with stressors in our life and in session the client will examine which strategies work best.

The focus of therapy is to identify early life influences and/or learned behaviors that lead to problem behaviors. Behaviors can include: anger, physical/emotional/sexual abuse. In addition family/relationship conflict, anxiety/depression, mood swings, drug & alcohol & compulsive behaviors. The sub conscious mind is programed from infancy with positive & negative beliefs & destructive coping skills, programmed survival skills. In therapy we identify old habits/behaviors & poor coping strategies. In therapy, we work to replace self destructive habits/behaviors with functional habits & beliefs. Anxiety & Depression are relieved.

The seemingly simple thought of "I need someone to talk to" can be challenging enough, but then needing to find that "right" person to speak with can be overwhelming. Perhaps this is your first time reaching out to a therapist, or you're getting back into therapy and unsure how to proceed. I've made it my mission to create a judgment-free, open, calm space for you to explore those parts of your life where you'd welcome change. Within this space, you will have the freedom to contemplate what change means for you, and we can work together to find the most supportive way to bring more balance into your life.

You have strengths you already use, perhaps without realizing it. Together, we will work to identify and build on those strengths as well as develop new skills so you can reach the goals you set. Get ready to take action! Change comes through action! The greatest insight and learning result from action! We typically start with small actions, which allow mastery of new skills and build confidence while working toward the bigger changes you want to make. My approach is strength-based and relational. Grounded in CBT and ACT, I incorporate strategies from other therapy models based on the needs and learning styles of the individual.

(Scheduling Saturday & Sunday) Thoughts are a driving force to our actions, feelings and moods. We all have negative automatic thoughts. Changing your thoughts – retraining your brain – is one essential part to improving your mental health. Together we can make positive changes in your mood, emotions and your life. Therapy doesn’t need to be for people with big problems, it can be for anyone who wants to make a positive change in their life.

The treatments I use help people to identify goals closest to their own values. Goals are then easier to achieve because they are already close to who you are and what you hold to be important. I can assist with reshaping challenging thoughts into productive actions and more positive behaviors. I work in a group practice in Lewiston founded as a diverse holistic group that with the pandemic has evolved into a practice of experienced mental health practictioners.

Congratulations on taking the first steps to becoming the best version of yourself! I am excited at the potential opportunity to work with yourself, or a loved one. Durning the process of therapy I gain an understanding of an individuals perspective in which they see themselves, others, and life’s conditions. I work with the individual to identifying specific problems or issues in your daily life, become aware of unproductive thought patterns and how they can impact your life. I work to identify negative thinking and reshape it in a way that changes how you feel, as well as learn new behaviors and put them into practice .
