I first assist clients to recognize, accept, and then cope with feelings of depression; we will also work in developing an awareness of their automatic thoughts to then co-create healthy cognitive patterns and beliefs about self and the world to release depressive symptoms. I make it my duty to reinforce the client’s positive, reality- based cognitive messages that enhance self- confidence, motivation, and desirable action.

I help clients with a history of explosiveness, aggressive outbursts, overreactive hostility, and passive- aggressive patterns. As I work with clients to develop an awareness of current angry behaviors, clarifying origins of and alternatives to aggression, we will work cohesively to decrease overall intensity and frequency of unwanted feelings, and increase ability to recognize and appropriately express these feelings as they occur.

Through this type of therapeutic approach, a myriad of mindful techniques will be utilized, in an attempt to transform the relationship with difficult thoughts and feelings through acceptance. I help clients to take effective action based on their true values, while learning to be aware of their emotions and feelings, independent of judgements, and staying present in the current moment.

CBT is based on the notion that one's thoughts , behaviors, and feelings are interconnected. I work to help clients identify and modify negative thought patterns to encourage optimal functioning, through modest confrontation, using the 'here-and-now', and co-creating achievable and measurable goals.

People in committed romantic partnerships can sometimes experience turmoil for a plethora of reasons.
