If you are traveling down a path and find your way blocked by a wall, you might think that you're now stuck. What if there's a gate, but you're getting distracted and can't see it? My work through CBT and Motivational Interviewing helps clients break through the barriers that make it difficult for them to move forward, or help them see the gate in the wall and open it themselves. Whether it's working with adults to help them face their anxiety, depression, stress, anger, trauma, motivation, self-esteem, and substance use, or with couples and their communication issues and conflict resolution, I work together with clients to help them see the tools available and understand how to use them so that they can make progress.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, inspiring, and supportive. We'll take a holistic look at the things that are causing issues and figure out where we can start causing change to happen. I use evidence-based approaches to help you develop insight and understanding while also creating structured plans and behavioral patterns that can lead to effective and meaningful change.

During intake, you can come in with an idea of what probably needs to be worked on because we'll figure out the finer details of the issues and goals at this time. We will talk about the difficulties making life challenging and how you may want to change things around. For couples, we will explore your relationship to understand how you communicate, how you deal with conflict, and how you'd like your relationship to grow and improve.
