Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having worked with clients of all ages for the past 18 years, I've learned that everyone is different and I want to meet you where you are. We will create a tailored plan together that leads to measurable progress.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with clients that suffer with depression, anxiety, anger, outburst, low self-esteem, and self-worth. As well as personality disorders.

My treatment methods

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I have taught DBT for the last 4 yrs in my women's group. It is about regulating your emotions and keeping yourself emotionally safe no matter what life throws your way. This practice also helps clients to make sound rational decisions by using critical thinking and mindfulness.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have taught CBT for years throughout therapy with different modalities, depending on what the patient needs are

First session and Lydia created a safe space for me. She showed genuine interest in getting to know me. I appreciated her time and kind words.

I appreciate Lydia’s timely and sage advice and actively listening. She makes me feel as though we are old friends and she cares deeply for my mental health. I am provided with material to help me cope after our sessions- something I have not experienced with other therapist. I look forward to speaking with her each week. Together we are breaking down walls and toppling errors in my system of thinking. She makes me excited to do this!
