Are you feeling nervous, anxious, on-edge, or stressed? The root causes of anxiety are complex and can include a combination of genetic, environmental, and psychological factors. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) that can offer you relief by exploring the relationship between your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. CBT aims to help with identifying your thoughts, reframing, practicing new skills, and adjusting thought patterns to improve emotional wellbeing.

Depression can look different from person-to-person. Are you feeling fatigue, having changes in your appetite, trouble thinking, making decisions or concentrating. These are a few of the symptoms that I can support you in and through by engaging in open communication, listening to your concerns, and guiding you to resources to create a process of change.

You are important! Let's work on shaping your personal beliefs, processing your life experiences, and creating an understanding of what is satisfying for you in life. I'll help you focus in on what motivates you, and how you can recognize and challenge negative self-perceptions to improve your overall quality of life.

Person-Centered therapy uses reflective listening, asks open-ended questions, and establishes a safe space for unconditional positive regard to provide a non-judgmental and accepting environment for you to express yourself freely.

In this approach, you are encouraged to re-author, and re-write, your personal narrative related to trauma, and in doing this you will have the opportunity to find meaning in your experiences and reshape your identity beyond your trauma.
