Mental wellness and physical wellness can either help or hinder the other. Behavioral treatments significantly improve both mental and physical outcomes, but we know it's easier said than done. I take a primarily cognitive-behavioral approach, which has the strongest evidence base and research backing, to most problem areas impacting your wellness. CBT techniques effectively change your life in the here-and-now, but careful consideration of your values show us what changes to make and how. We will explore your values and goals together; I have not climbed your mountain, but as I climb mine I’m driven to help you summit yours. Relationships can cause distress and be the explicit focus of treatment. I provide Integrative Behavioral Couples Therapy or explore family of origin issues. Sleep is as important to wellness as diet or exercise. I aim to improve sleep disrupted by insomnia using CBT-I, the recommended treatment for insomnia and can be effective in as few as 3-6 sessions. My background is also founded on specific mood-related issues (ie depression, anxiety, stress) using often short-term (12-16 sessions) treatments. I’d love to chat with you to see if I can help you with your goals. I hope you’ll head over to my website to learn more, schedule directly with me there, or message for a free phone consultation!
