Hello! I have over 20yrs experience in various human service settings, all aimed at helping people. Since I have been a LCSW (UNC, 2013), 1:1 therapy is where I see folks experience the most significant changes. I also work at a primary care doctor’s office as a therapist, helping folks of all ages find effective approaches to life’s challenges, uncomfortable moods and worry.
"You can’t see the label from inside the jar.” Thinking about the way we think is how I describe Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Let’s talk about the stories we tell ourselves and see what we can learn about how that motivates behavior. Then, let’s talk about changing the stories.
You can expect to feel relaxed and welcomed. Feel free to laugh, too. What I encourage people to do is find something that helps cope and simply do it on purpose, more often & we will go from there.
