My approach
I know taking the first step to reach out for support is hard. My goal of therapy is to make you feel comfortable and assist you in making changes to achieve the life you want. My approach tends to be more active and directive while maintaining a collaborative relationship with you. I also tend to look at things through a cognitive behavioral lens which is looking at how our thinking impacts how we feel and how we feel impacts our behavior in what we choose to do or not do. When we work together we will work on learning ways to challenge these negative thought patterns that often get us stuck in unhealthy or unhappy places. I provide therapy for kids, adolescents, adults and families.
Providing both in-person and virtual appointments.
Individual Therapy:
The primary goal of individual therapy is to increase understanding of one’s thought and behavior patterns to help increase function and well-being. In therapy, people can learn how to effectively manage stress, interpersonal difficulties and troubling situations. They may develop abilities to make healthy decisions, set goals and become more self-aware.
Family Therapy:
Family therapy involves family members in a process of communication and problem-solving. Rather than singling out one family member as the person with a problem, in family therapy I look at how the entire family system can contribute to the overall smooth functioning of each family member.
EMDR:
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR Therapy) is an evidence-based approach to treating trauma and PTSD.
