About My Clients
Today's world is increasingly challenging. It's so easy to get overwhelmed with stress, worry, and anxiety. But it doesn't have to be that way. I teach people just like you how to reduce stress, make more empowering decisions, and get back their calm and confidence.
My Background and Approach
I grew up in Wisconsin, and went to Madison West High School. After establishing a successful online therapy practice in Berkeley California, I founded Madison Online Therapy. I realized that online therapy is an effective, convenient way for people to get easier access to the help they need and deserve. My therapeutic approach is grounded in a philosophy of optimism and self empowerment. My first career was bicycle racing, where I learned the value of keeping a positive mindset. Athletics led me to psychology, and ultimately to cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT. This approach to therapy focuses on empowering people with high-level skills to change the thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that cause us all to stay stuck in the status quo.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe everyone has the capacity to make powerful, positive changes in their lives. The key is to break through the limiting beliefs we have bought into. Like Plato's Cave or the Matrix movie, we can't see our limitations because we’re not even aware we have them. Many of us have been trained to view our desires - better relationships, satisfying careers, more free time - as selfish, or unattainable. We strive for growth, but unconsciously sabotage ourselves. We get stuck in this negative loop and don't know how to get out. But change is possible. All it takes is the willingness to try. I encourage you to schedule a free phone consultation to discuss how we can work together to expand your potential, create momentum, and achieve your goals.
