My focus is primarily working with adults dealing with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, family stressors, career challenges, and people looking to find a stronger mind/body connection. My theoretical approach is based strongly in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Using CBT with my clients means that some of the time will be spent exploring core beliefs, values systems, and how negative self-talk might be influencing present behavior. I also like to establish short and long-term goals with my clients and, together, discover ways in which to achieve them. Throughout my educational and professional career, I have always worked to better understand people and to develop ways to use that understanding to improve their overall quality of life. I believe strongly in the mind-body connection. I believe in the power of feeling heard. As your therapist, my first priority will be to create a nurturing environment based on mutual trust where you can feel safe to discuss the things you deem important to you.
