I have over a decade of experience providing therapy to teens and adults. Overwhelming emotions, thoughts, and feelings, caused by life stressors can be calmed and controlled. Your struggles do not have to consume you. You can decrease your anxiety or depression and increase your self-esteem and confidence by simply reaching out. I can help you on a path to build strength, hope, happiness and fulfillment in your life. My approach is straightforward and empowering with a little added laughter. I have experience with an array of issues and I have many tools and skills to improve your circumstances. Let’s conquer the problems that won’t seem to go away and move toward a joyful fulfilling life. You have more strength than you think! Let's work together to find out how to tap into it! .
In our first session I will get basic information that helps inform me about your individuality. We will discuss your struggles and make a plan to help get you on the right path and start living your best life.
I find creative ways to adapt therapy skills to my client's individuality.
I enjoy working with clients of all ages that have a desire to change or better their self or their circumstances. I enjoy seeing my clients have less depression and anxiety and increased confidence and self-esteem.
This is the number one therapy used today. It's premise is that your thoughts dictate your emotions, feelings and reactions. Therefore, we work on skills to help change your negative self-defeating thoughts to more positive reality-based thoughts.
Dialectical behavior therapy is similar to CBT and has mindfulness components also, but adds emotional management skills to help with mood disorders or complicated depression.
I use mindfulness to help you connect with yourself and the world around you. It can ground you and calm you in the moment but when used regularly will manifest long term change.
Solution focused treatment is usually short term and used for a single problem that you are dealing with in the now.
