I am a Licensed Psychologist who helps people of all ages develop courage, confidence and clarity to rebuild their lives and move forward following significant losses, setbacks and traumatic experiences. I combine my personal experience with professional training to help clients move through uncomfortable feelings, identify and change unhelpful patterns of thinking or coping and feel more content and fulfilled with their lives.
I view the therapy relationship as a collaborative partnership where we will work together to achieve your goals. I draw primarily from cognitive behavioral approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Internal Family Systems.
I view therapy as a dynamic process where we initially will work together create a vision of success, which will guide our selection of goals and intervention. We will strive to identify and modify patterns of thinking, coping or responding which are not serving you and develop skills which align with your values and needs. We will also develop a plan to apply insights and skills derived from the session to situations outside the therapy room.
