Life’s transitions and challenges, whether separation, workplace conflict, or personal growth—can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face them alone. I provide a safe, supportive space where you can explore your experiences and begin to reconnect with your inner resilience.

I use evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, DBT, and trauma-informed care.
If you’re here, you may be feeling overwhelmed by your thoughts and emotions—anxious, stuck in overthinking, disconnected, or repeating patterns that no longer feel helpful. You might be dealing with anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, relationship stress, or self-esteem concerns, and feel tired of carrying this for so long. Reaching out can feel scary, but wanting support makes sense. Therapy can be a place to slow down, feel understood, and learn practical ways to feel more grounded, rebuild trust in yourself, and move through life with greater ease and confidence.

I commonly use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and/or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, but am not opposed to many other types of interventions based on what you share is your desired outcome from therapy.
I understand the exhaustion that comes from trying to fit into a world that wasn't necessarily designed for your mind—or watching your child struggle in that same world. Whether you're navigating these challenges yourself, or supporting a child who is, you've probably spent years being told to change many behaviors to fit more appropriately into systems that weren't built with neurodivergent minds in mind. The truth is, these struggles are all valid. And they deserve compassionate support, not dismissal. Your experiences matter, your child's experiences matter, and everyone deserves care that honors who you truly are.

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.
