I specialize in anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and eating disorders using a blended approach of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, strength-based , solution-focused, and holistic therapy.
My ideal clients are people who are open to learning about new perspectives and ways of thinking with the intention of creating healthier inner dialogues and approaches to life stressors. Clients dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and life transitions may or may not know the root cause/s of their suffering, but taking this first step towards healing is a journey I feel privileged to participate in. Each person is the expert on themselves, and if we form an open and honest working relationship, the possibilities for transformation, growth, and lasting change are within certain reach.

I have practiced psychotherapy for over 25 years and love what I do every day. My approach when working with individuals, families and couples is collaborative, dynamic, creative and often humorous. I utilize a variety of therapeutic techniques, including cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic treatment and family systems therapy, depending on the needs and wishes of each patient or patients whom I treat. I feel honored and privileged to not only have the people I treat share their struggles, achievements, hopes and dreams, but to facilitate and witness their process as they make positive changes in their lives.

I work exclusively with women on an individual basis, to address issues ranging from depression/anxiety to body acceptance. I am a certified Intuitive Eating counselor, as well as a Duke-trained Integrative Health Coach. I work with women to help with life transitions, assisting them with discovering themselves again, whether it is through learning to trust themselves around food, taking the time they don’t think that they have, or helping them to tune into what is behind their self-sabotaging behaviors. Traumatic life events or mental health issues can sometimes hold us back, and I help clients to move forward on their terms.

Therapy should be more than just talk. I offer more than just a safe space to talk about your feelings. I offer ways to truly become connected to your feelings and integrate what you learn about your feelings in therapy into your daily life. If you are overwhelmed with work, parenting, feel betrayed or hurt in the relationships, feel disconnected from others, maybe you sense a hopelessness around world events and/or maybe just want to learn more about who you are: we will work together to understand who you are, what is really good for you and what you want out of life. When you are with me, you belong, you matter, you are safe.

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.
