Using various therapeutic approaches, I aim to help my clients build skills that allow them to find a balance between allergy anxiety and a meaningful quality of life. The primary modalities used include:
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) - Focuses on increasing psychological flexibility to allow people to act in accordance with their values, even during distressing life moments
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) - Focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts, feelings and actions, and can include exposure therapy work to decrease intensity of anxiety and fears
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) - Goal-directed collaborative approach which incorporates Positive Psychology principles and practices
Systems/Family Systems Theory - Focuses on problem-solving through the lens of relationships, dynamics and patterns that exist within families.
Individual Counseling for Women and Moms:
Let's face it - being a woman is hard at times. But that's why I enjoy working with women! It's rewarding to help you discover (or rediscover) yourself, find a workable life balance, better understand your relationships, and navigate distressing moments throughout your life.
Here are common reasons why women reach out to me for counseling services focused on women's wellness:
You're looking for support on topics relating to women's wellness or navigating motherhood
You're a young adult needing guidance as you prepare for college, jobs, or adulthood
You're trying your best to manage and co-exist with feelings of anxiety, overwhelm, or stress
You might be trying to navigate a tough relationship, but feel stuck and confused
It could be that you're tired of spreading yourself too thin and need to make tough life decisions
Or maybe you're a mom trying to juggle motherhood and a career, but don't feel you're balancing both well
No matter the reason you're seeking support, my goal is to help you gain clarity, tap into your own strengths, and build the skills you need to move forward toward the vision you have for your life. Even with individual therapy, I welcome including others into counseling sessions, such as significant others or family members, when deemed appropriate. I look forward to working with you and helping you achieve your life goals!
