Our team of therapists pull from a myriad of evidence based treatment modalities to meet the individual needs of our clients. Some of the most well known and effective therapy modalities we offer are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). One of the goals of CBT is to replace negative thoughts and actions with productive behaviors that make the individual feel equipped to overcome any difficult moment. DBT emphasizes individual psychotherapy and group skills training classes to help people learn and use new skills and strategies to develop a life worth living. DBT skills include, skills for mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. We work with our clients to help them recognize how their thinking influences their emotions and behaviors and to establish personalized effective coping mechanisms. Doing so will ultimately help you identify and effectively manage thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in real-world situations.
The best approach to treatment is a personalized care where all of my clients have the ability to create their own course of treatment. I have multiple years’ experience providing individualized, solution focused therapy. I have worked with children as young as 5 and adults to age 70. Success with both individual and family treatment comes naturally. After meeting with me, you will walk away with the knowledge of how to improve your life. You will understand what treatment will look like, clear goals will be created, and a solid foundation on what to expect moving forward. Throughout the course of treatment, you will begin to learn about yourself. You will learn what works and what does not in terms of how to improve and maintain a positive lifestyle. By the time we are finished with treatment, you will be ready to face the world all on your own. Making that initial call is difficult but we will work together to overcome that barrier. I am available for a free telephone consultation to discuss your needs and to create a plan of action.

Sometimes you wonder: When did life become so tough? Many things can knock us off balance. Betrayal from friends. Abuse by a trusted one, and the numbing shock of PTSD. Grief and loss. Trauma doesn’t look the same for every person. The common lie my clients tell themselves is, “It’s not that bad, other people have it worse.” You’re not other people, and if your life is being impacted by heavy emotions you’re carrying, you’re allowed to get help. Everything that happens to you, matters. I help people break through the overwhelm. I'm a board-certified psychotherapist specializing in trauma and PTSD, including trauma from abuse, rape, sexual assault and relationship violence. My collaborative approach focuses on your strengths, creating a safe environment that fosters growth. It’s important for someone to be in your corner - not to judge you, or tell you what to do, but to truly listen to you and guide you as you heal.
I believe in hope, love, equality, equity, inclusion, and kindness. I also believe in science, accountability, and the impact that trauma has on our functioning. In my practice, I feel comfortable addressing any differences in gender, race, and ethnicity with my clients and the impact that these might have on the working relationship and overall treatment. Many of my clients come to me because they're starting to realize certain things they've experienced when they were younger, or even recently, are starting to have a negative impact on their lives, their ability be happy, and their ability to form new and healthy relationships. My practice focuses on working with those who are ready to address those experiences.
Many people seem to have lost their way; they have followed paths they believe they "should" take and find themselves asking why they are not as happy as they expected to be. At the heart of therapy is empathy, i.e. the ability to understand and share the feelings of another. My empathy for clients enables them to identify their feelings and needs, and accept and value them. This allows them to empathize with others and form meaningful relationships. While therapy requires work and commitment and can thus be challenging, it is well worth the investment of time and energy.

My clients often say that deciding to become involved in therapy is one of their most difficult life choices. I understand. I’m a trained and experienced psychotherapist, and my view is that they are the experts in their own lives, and, it is my honor and privilege to be asked to be part of their journey of self-exploration. My purpose is to support them by offering alternate viewpoints and also to encourage them to delve into patterns that often lead to feelings of negativity and/or being “stuck.” Due to my background, I’m able to encourage my clients in identifying their personal challenges in a safe and supportive environment. My professional experience is in working with individuals who are dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and grief. I rely on talk therapy that includes cognitive behavior therapy, trauma informed therapy and mindfulness practice to help clients learn healthy ways to cope with challenges and develop self-awareness.
