I specialize in helping individuals feel better and get the life they want by using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). This approach is a practical, solution-focused therapy that explores how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected. It helps identify and change negative thinking patterns contributing to emotional distress or difficulties. By teaching specific skills and techniques, CBT empowers individuals to manage challenges more effectively. It aims to break overwhelming problems into smaller parts, fostering a better understanding of oneself and developing strategies to cope better with life's ups and downs.

Are you looking for a way to make positive changes in your life? Do you want to improve your mood and feelings about yourself and those around you? Are you seeking moments that allow you to spend time by yourself, but also enjoy time spent with others? Do you feel like there are times when it's difficult to practice mindfulness, or that insight into your own behaviors is difficult to achieve?

Being with the people closest to us is often the most challenging part of our life. You might understand why things are like this, but how do you deal with it? The same conflicts repeat over and over. Despite your best efforts to avoid this, you watch yourself falling back to yelling, arguing, or walking away defeated. Maybe it's not ALWAYS this way but there's definitely potential for improvement. Getting along better would ease a lot of that stress, worry, and pain. Things would certainly improve for others affected by this negativity too. Knowing how to love yourself and others would make life much easier and enjoyable.

My goal as a therapist is to help you make sense of difficult past experiences and make meaningful changes in your life. We will work collaboratively to help you acquire the tools needed to make progress towards your goals. I work to personalize each therapeutic experience to meet my clients' needs, strengths, and goals. Sessions often focus on helping you gain insight into patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving and learning to modify those unhelpful and maladaptive patterns to improve your mental health and quality of life.

Are you struggling with low self-esteem? Have you lost a loved one and are unsure how to move on without them? I believe that everyone has a unique story and experience in life. My goal is to allow you to openly share your stressors, gain awareness, and assist you in building the confidence to find the solutions to your struggles. I will assist you in exploring your thought process and emotional patterns by using a series of techniques from various approaches. And I will create a secure atmosphere where you will feel appreciated and will obtain the highest quality of care while working towards achieving emotional independence.

There’s nothing I find more gratifying than helping my clients redefining purpose in their lives. While we are in a constant struggle with the expectations of others, we often lose sight of who we are ourselves. We negotiate, toil, and sacrifice—sometimes without even knowing why.

I have been in private practice for 20+ years and have learned the joy and pain of finding purpose in the human condition with and through my clients. I have vast experience in coping/healing from various traumas, PTSD, separation, shame, a strong background in trust issues, and all types of relationships, as well as a forte for LGBTQIA relationships and parenting.

Today’s world can seem overwhelming and exhausting to many of us. Sometimes, even getting out of bed seems like a chore. Anxiety can feel like it has a vice grip on your life. Imagine if you didn’t have to feel this way. It is possible. I have a history of working with individuals that struggle with addictions, people in the criminal justice system, and those who suffer from anxiety, depression, PTSD, c-PTSD, eating disorders, mood disorders, the LGBTQIA population, and couples struggling in their relationships. The therapies I offer focus on helping to alleviate the negative symptoms that can come with these battles.

I specialize in marital and relationship counseling. If you are tired of having the same fight, feel disconnected to your partner, or would like to find ways to enhance your relationship, you will benefit from my approach. I help couples make repair by supporting each person to be more authentic in their relationships. I have a unique style that is supportive in a way that is also direct and challenging. Couples learn how to move through difficult issues and expand their comfort zones. Through this process, couples achieve greater closeness with each other while maintaining their own identity.
