My therapeutic approach includes a blend mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapies, such as ACT and DBT.
Do you find that thoughts like "I'm not good enough," or "things will never get better," are stopping you from living the life you want? Although we may not have control over the thoughts and feelings that show up for us, we can absolutely learn how to choose what we do to manage them. Together, we will work on skills to lessen the impact of the painful thoughts and emotions that are keeping you stuck. Additionally, I specialize in supporting the needs of the LGBTQIA population. I have worked with many individuals on their journeys of self-acceptance/coming out/transitioning/etc.

I am experienced in various therapeutic interventions including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, Trauma-Focused CBT (TFCBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI).
My ideal client is actively contemplating making changes in their life. They are prepared to discuss, explore, and process their trauma history and to find meaning in their experiences. They are able to work towards identifying how they would like to see their quality of life change (for example, reduce and better manage anxiety) and are prepared to take the necessary steps to do so. Additionally, the client can tolerate being challenged when their thinking or behaviors are inconsistent with their goals.

My work combines psychoanalytic therapy with helping people learn how to listen to the unique and creative way in which our body carries wisdom, information and unprocessed experiences. It is important for us to tell the story of what has happened to us and to have our stories held in a compassionate manner. If we already know our story and find ourselves still stuck in old behaviors, thoughts and patterns, then learning to listen and experience how our bodies hold meaning for what's still unresolved or unknown is a valuable skill.

I've made it my life's mission to help those who've experienced loss of a loved one, loss due to divorce, life altering illness or injury, and other types of loss. You’ve come to this place because you've experienced a life-altering loss. Something has happened that has changed the trajectory of your life. The road ahead may seem confusing — riddled with sadness, heartache, and maybe even fear. You might wonder what comes next, what comes AFTERWARDS.

Far too often we are weighed down by heavy emotions; intrusive thoughts and conditioned patterns. Through my varied experience I have been able to witness firsthand--that even in the most dire circumstances positive change is possible. My philosophy is to provide you with patience; positivity and pragmatism while varying the therapeutic approach to fit your current needs. To foster motivation and facilitate insight, I utilize a combination of strength-based techniques.

Hopefully you will find some of those answers here and if not, I'm available for a free phone consult. In our work together, I prioritize collaboration, transparency, humor, and curiosity to help bring more awareness to the patterns in your life that may be blocking you from pursuing or accomplishing personal or professional goals.

Life is a journey; at least to me it is. My life has been a journey (and still is). Life is full of ups and downs; sometimes, life gives us more downs than ups. That's okay; no really, it is. It's only by going through life that we can experience everything it has to offer. As your therapist, I will take the journey with you. Together, we will examine the obstacles in your way and take them on, one by one. I will provide empathy, compassion, and insight to each session.

Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists

How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?

Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.

When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?

If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behavior through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.

What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?

This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviors and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.

Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?

Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioral habits.
