I know the feeling of being paralyzed by fear and getting physically sick when faced with things and places that cause me anxiety. By learning different techniques and coping skills, I have been able to lead a much richer life. Your anxiety may not totally disappear, but it can be managed and even used to your advantage! Learn how and why we experience anxiety, the tools that can help combat it, and appreciate that your body and brain are trying to help you.

Have you been told that you need to learn to control your anger or has it gotten you into trouble at home, work or school? Using CBT (Cognitive-Behavior Therapy) and MI (Motivation Interviewing), I can help you learn to control your anger response and also lessen the amount of anger you experience internally. I've never heard anyone say, "I sure wish I could be angry more often." Now is the time to to work on this issue once and for all!

Growing up today is harder than at almost any other time in history. Teens are experiencing anxiety and depression in record numbers at a time when they have less resiliency than ever. Academic pressures, peer pressure, and FMO (fear of missing out) can be more than one can handle. Parent/teen relationships are often the toughest and yet most important to navigate. I can help teens who struggle with anxiety and depression to put things into perspective and learn coping skills to deal with life's pressures. I also work with parents in creating a healthy environment for and relationship with their teen. This age doesn't last forever--there can be light at the end of the tunnel!

The magic triangle--thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Learn about the interaction between the three and the powerful way in which you can control the way you see and experience the world. CBT has been the first and main focus of my work for 10 years. It's the only modality I use but the research has shown it to be very effective in most areas of mental health.

Children learn through play. By allowing them to playout their experiences in a safe, nurturing environment, children process and heal from traumatic experiences. Sandtray therapy (which is also used with teens and adults) allows children to make sense of their world through directive and non-directive means. Using the Nurtured Heart Approach during sessions also allows dysregulated children the space and control to help monitor and manage their own behaviors. Though not a registered play therapist, I have taken courses in graduate school and have seven years of continuing education and experience working primarily with children in the school setting.

The only true, lasting change that can happen is that which is initiated from within. My goal is not to change you, but to help guide you in making the change that you have been wanting to make for yourself. If others are trying to make you change, we can discuss why that is and what you think is best for you. I completed training in Motivational Interviewing seven years ago and have been successfully using it with students at school and clients in private practice ever since.
