Individual Therapy

 Individual therapy (psychotherapy) provides a supportive, collaborative space to address emotional, psychological, and relationship challenges. Treatment is personalized to your unique needs, goals, and life experiences, using evidence-based approaches to help you develop practical coping skills, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change. All therapy sessions are conducted securely via Telehealth.

With nearly three decades of clinical experience, I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, life transitions, and mood disorders. I also specialize in supporting individuals and families navigating chronic illness, rare disease, medical trauma, caregiver stress, and the emotional impact of complex health conditions. My approach is warm, practical, and tailored to help you build resilience, strengthen relationships, and move forward with greater confidence and emotional stability.

My Approach To Individual Therapy Sessions

In my individual therapy sessions, I utilize various modalities which include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) techniques to help my patients manage their thoughts and feelings, and subsequently enhance coping strategies and improve relationships. 

I believe in fostering a positive relationship with my patients so that they feel comfortable enough to communicate with me openly and have faith in the therapy process. I also believe in communicating directly with my patients and in giving them realistic expectations. I find that this relationship of mutual trust and open communication between patient and therapist is how I successfully help people to improve their lives.

What can I expect from a therapy session?

Each therapy session is unique and dependent upon the health condition of the patient and where they are in their journey. 

During your first session, I would generally provide a guide to therapy expectations and explain the process. Then we would work on goal setting together. I then make recommendations based on my initial assessment, and amend as necessary. I am a direct communicator, and I think that it is important to set realistic expectations to explain what therapy can and cannot do. I also provide realistic time frames to my patients and those time frames are dependent on the condition or diagnosis that the patient is seeking treatment for.
