I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psycho-education, Art Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Grief and Loss, Somatic Modalities, Mindfulness, and others.
Hi! In my life I have learned the value of a good counselor, someone who is there to listen, provide perspective, and challenge assumptions. A person that is there to help you tell your story, find meaning, and identify strengths. Counseling is not always an easy thing for people to engage in and can seem intimidating and scary at times. It may lead you to explore things that are painful and frightening, and may bring up emotions that many of us are hesitant to explore. As I work with people I strive to make a space where these feelings, experiences, and thoughts can be freely expressed and explored in a way that promotes healing.

I have found that no single therapy works for everyone during my 20 years of treating trauma, depression, anxiety, phobias as well as doing marital therapy. While trained in traditional therapy, I have integrated mind-body therapies where appropriate since research indicates symptoms are stored in the body as well as in the mind. EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Tappas Accupressure Technique, Advanced Integrative Therapy, Thought Field Therapy, the Emotional Freedom Technique, and Healing from the Body Level Up are a few modalities I use along with cognitive restructuring and psycho-education. I work with each client to determine goals and treatment plans.

My expertise lies in evidence-based trauma processing treatments for PTSD, including cognitive processing therapy and prolonged exposure therapy.
When people are fearful or anxious, they naturally tend to avoid the activities, things, or situations that remind them of their uncomfortable feelings. This is a natural and understandable reaction, however, while this might help reduce feelings of anxiety in the short-term, over the long-term it can make the fear become even worse. As a psychologist who specializes in the treatment of anxiety disorders using exposure therapy, an evidence-based practice, my goal is to create a warm and encouraging environment for you to learn reduce your anxiety and step back into your life in a meaningful way.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists
How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?
Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.
When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.
How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.
Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
