Additionally, I utilize an integrative approach in techniques, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy and strength-based therapy.
Life often comes at us in full force when we are feeling our most vulnerable. It can be challenging to get through the day without feeling overwhelmed, fatigued, discouraged or at times, angry. Everyone deserves a safe space to unwind from daily stressors and to explore the challenges that life throws your way. In our work together, we will build a therapeutic relationship that promotes empathy, trust and congruence. We will strive to set achievable goals that will enhance your quality of life, increase your self confidence and ultimately lead to a happier you.

Do you feel disconnected from those around you, or at times do you put on a fake smile so others don’t really know how you are feeling, or even put others needs before your own? Life around you seems to be moving at a different pace then you and finding your breath seems difficult, even though you can’t slow down to think or make sense of the world around you. Every day decisions seem overwhelming or simple tasks take longer than expected.

I am taking new clients. My goal is to provide you with a safe space to grow and learn about yourself while letting go of what doesn't serve you. The first step in reaching out for support can be a scary one, but you don't have to take on the rest of the journey alone. I believe that therapy is a partnership built on trust, and though change may be difficult, it can become a little easier to cope with, with the right set of tools and support.

You're the one who does it all, and you do a pretty good job at it, but looks can be deceiving. You try so hard to hold everything together: to say the right things, to anticipate every need, and sometimes the stress is overwhelming. You feel pulled in so many different directions, it feels impossible to manage it all, but still you try. Others around you may even compliment you on how "put together" you are, or how well you juggle everything, but they don't see how it feels inside. You're falling apart. Some days you feel like you can't do one more thing. You're tired. You're worn out. You worry constantly. You need a change.

Some days are better than others, but why can't everyday be good? That doesn't mean every day is going go your way, but it can mean that you are less impacted by situations or circumstances that leave you feeling down, stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed. In return, you are able to cope with life situations in a way that teaches you how to live the life you want and feel good about the choices you make throughout your day. We all have challenges we face and at times, it seems easier to just give up. However, this does not have to be your destiny. You can take control of your life no matter what the situation is and find happiness.

Strength-Based Therapists

How does strength-based therapy work?

During strength-based therapy sessions, the therapist will ask about an individual’s experiences of stress, pain, or trauma with the goal of orienting the client to view themselves as a survivor rather than a victim, and focusing on their strengths rather than on their weaknesses. In framing a client’s personal narrative along these lines, the therapist and client work together to identify existing skills that can be harnessed.

Is strength-based therapy evidence-based?

Strength-based therapy is an evidence-based treatment that has been studied extensively and shown to be effective across domains. The treatment has been found to be particularly effective in helping individuals who are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health concerns. Strength-based therapy has been used by therapists to help clients for more than 60 years.

How long does strength-based therapy last?

There’s no precise timeline for strength-based therapy. The duration of treatment depends on the individual’s specific needs and goals and the severity of their concerns. Some individuals may find they achieve their therapeutic goals quickly, while others might benefit from ongoing support and guidance in order to continue progressing.

How effective is strength-based therapy?

Clinical research and decades of practice have shown strength-based therapy to be an effective treatment to improve mental health and well-being for many conditions. The treatment can engender a sense of connection and collaboration between the therapist and the individual, fostering a positive therapeutic relationship. For individuals with narcissistic tendencies, strength-based therapy may be less effective, as the focus on the individual’s strengths may undermine the work needed to honestly assess the challenges the individual faces.
