Using evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I specialize in helping people with anxiety and related problems, including depression, stress, trauma, cancer survivorship, adult ADHD, chronic pain, insomnia, and behavioral medicine. If any of these are interfering with your efforts to achieve healthy goals, maximize your growth potential, and lead a happy, productive life, we could work together to help you identify the psychological and situational factors that are blocking you and teach you the necessary skills to more effectively manage or eliminate those factors. CBT is a very effective way to help you do this.
CBT helps you change thoughts, rather than situations, in order to change painful emotions and unhelpful behaviors. It is brief, structured, and builds on the idea that emotional and behavioral reactions are learned. The goal of therapy is helping you unlearn unhelpful reactions and learn new, helpful ways of reacting.
More than "talk therapy," CBT leads to long term results. Understanding how and why you are doing well enables you to know what to do to continue doing well. It has been my real privilege to work with people who have unlearned their unhelpful reactions and pursued happy, productive lives.
