Life is often overwhelming! Anxiety is something we all experience, but excessive anxiety alters how you process emotions and react to challenges. In therapy, we address your anxieties to help you navigate situations in a new way and develop better coping and problem solving skills.

Life is often overwhelming! Anxiety is something we all experience, but excessive anxiety alters how you process emotions and react to challenges. In therapy, we address your anxieties to help you navigate situations in a new way and develop better coping and problem solving skills. I use evidence based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy to explore negative thought patterns and self talk . Together we find creative new ways to approach those inevitable bumps in the road.

I've worked as a school psychologist and mental health counselor for over 30 years. We all want peace and harmony within our families, and can experience struggles with demanding needs and wants. I use a strength based model to increase positive interactions and build trust and good will, while teaching skills to open lines of communication. I will help you define goals and access needed resources to promote positive family dynamics.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is an evidence based practice which is very helpful with anxiety and depression. CBT helps people learn how to identify and change destructive or disturbing thought patterns that have a negative influence on behavior and emotions. When we reframe negative thoughts and behavioral responses and can be more flexible in our perceptions and approaches, we open the door for positive growth and can experience changes in our perspective as well as the way we respond.

Motivational interviewing is a counseling approach that can help you find the motivation to make a positive behavior change. This is a supportive and client-centered approach, which is very effective for people who have mixed feelings about changing their behavior. As a therapist, I will engage in reflexive listening and give you positive feedback and eliminate the roadblocks in helping elicit the changes you desire.

Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy builds upon the principles of cognitive therapy. Techniques such as mindfulness meditation help us consciously pay attention to our thoughts and feelings without placing any judgments upon them. Mindfulness is an evidence based therapy that is helpful for depression and anxiety and can help us feel more in control and make better choices, as well as remove some of the pressure and "shoulds" we often demand of ourselves.
