At some point in life, many of us find ourselves feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply in need of support. Whether it is navigating anxiety, depression, or the stress of life transitions, talk therapy can be a meaningful and effective way to move forward. My goal is to offer a space that is warm, welcoming, and grounded in practical tools that help you build a life that feels more like your own.
Why I Use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
In my practice, I use an approach called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT for short. CBT is well-researched and highly effective for a wide range of emotional and mental health challenges. It helps you identify unhelpful thought patterns, understand how those patterns affect your emotions and actions, and learn new ways of thinking and behaving that feel more balanced and empowering. Together, we focus on areas that support change and growth:
– Practicing physical and emotional calming techniques
– Developing present-moment awareness through mindfulness
– Recognizing and challenging unhelpful thinking patterns
– Rewriting the stories you tell yourself to reflect your strengths and values
This is not about quick fixes. It is about building long-term skills that help you navigate life with more confidence and compassion.
