As a licensed marriage and family therapist with over five years of experience, I specialize in helping clients navigate fears and anxiety related to the current job market. Having worked in tech for close to six years, I understand firsthand the challenges of layoffs and job instability. Let's work together to find your resilience and gain control over your future.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we'll focus on getting to know each other and learning if we are a good fit to work together. We'll explore your current challenges and discuss your goals for therapy. This initial conversation will help us create a personalized plan to address your needs.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I truly understand how daunting the job market can be, especially within the fast-paced and unpredictable tech industry. I faced the same pressures and uncertainties in my previous career so I really get it. I'm warm, empathic, and a good listener, dedicated to creating a safe space where you can share openly. I can help by offering you practical tools for managing stress. You'll leave each session equipped with strategies to help you manage your anxiety and confidently navigate your career.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we'll tackle the thoughts and worries that are fueling your work-related anxiety. Together, we'll find practical ways to manage any stresses you may have and build your confidence. By focusing on how your thoughts, feelings, and actions are connected, CBT can help you feel more in control and better equipped to handle job market challenges with a positive outlook. Whether you're feeling scared about job interviews, worried about job security, or anxious about career changes, CBT offers tools to help you navigate these fears and move forward with greater ease and resilience.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness-based therapy can be a powerful tool for managing anxiety and stress. By practicing mindfulness, you'll learn to stay present and calm amidst uncertainty, reducing the impact of negative thoughts and worries. Through techniques such as mindful breathing, body scans, and meditation, we'll cultivate a state of focused relaxation and improve your ability to manage stress. These practices can help you respond to challenges with a clearer, more centered mind.
