ABOUT

When we live our lives in a state of constant fight-or-flight, we can go into survival mode. Worries, phobias, panic attacks, obsessive thoughts, and/or repetitive/compulsive behaviors can make us feel hopeless and avoidant of things that seem too risky. We can find ourselves overthinking, overanalyzing, and feeling powerless. If you're feeling like life hasn't been moving in a positive direction, or as though you've been at a standstill, unable to maneuver how to proceed or unable to believe you can tolerate the uncertainty of a "bad" move, let me support you.
I specialize in the treatment of anxiety disorders and OCD using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), ACT, and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). These treatments help the participant to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, clarify their personal goals and values, and make tangible behavioral changes. Early morning and even overnight options.
I have a wide range of experience in the mental health field, and I've had the privilege of working with clients from all walks of life. I am passionate about this field, and I would consider myself lucky to have the opportunity to help you on your journey.

TREATMENT APPROACH

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a form of psychotherapy that encourages individuals to accept their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment and to use them as tools to help them to make changes in their lives that are consistent with their values. It is based on the idea that by changing the way we think about our inner experiences, we can reduce emotional distress and increase our sense of well-being.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on how one's thoughts, feelings and behaviors are connected and can be changed. It is based on the idea that how we think (cognition) and how we feel (emotion) can influence how we behave. CBT helps people identify and challenge distorted thinking and replace it with more balanced thinking, leading to improved mood and behavior. ‘Homework’, usually containing practical writing exercises, is often completed by the client between sessions to reinforce the therapy. Examples of tools that practitioners often use are journaling, challenging beliefs, and mindfulness.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a type of cognitive-behavioral therapy developed by Marsha Linehan to help people learn to better manage and cope with emotions and stress. It focuses on developing skills and strategies to help regulate emotions, improve relationships and communication, and reduce self-destructive behaviors. Through DBT, people learn to identify and modify unhealthy thoughts and behaviors, while also learning to accept and validate their own feelings. DBT teaches skills to help individuals become aware of and accept and regulate their emotions, tolerate distress, and improve interpersonal relationships.
