About My Practice
If you're experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, insomnia, unwanted habits, or communication difficulties in your relationships, I can provide the support you need to feel better and achieve meaningful and lasting change.
My practice incorporates an evidence-based cognitive therapy approach, developed by Dr. David Burns, which is highly effective. This framework helps clients improve quickly and equips them with tools for ongoing self-help. In addition to my training in cognitive therapy, I am certified in CBT-I, a specialized cognitive therapy for treating insomnia.
When we start working together, I will take time to understand your situation and life circumstances. I will then create a personalized treatment plan which includes teaching you skills designed to address your unique challenges. I will seek your feedback regularly, using it to adjust our sessions as needed and to monitor progress. I will also require work between sessions, to help you practice new skills.
My clients typically begin to experience relief after the first few sessions. Through our collaborative work, you will become empowered to make lasting positive changes that help you find joy and fulfillment.
I look forward to meeting you!
