Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), helping children and teens understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Through this work, they build practical skills to manage everyday challenges and develop lasting emotional resilience.

My approach to CBT is flexible, creative, and personalized to each client. I have extensive experience helping individuals navigate a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, perfectionism, mood concerns, behavioral difficulties, adolescent stress, and challenges related to self-esteem.

Treatment frequently begins with a parent-only consultation. Ongoing therapy sessions are then conducted with the child/teen, and parents are included regularly for check-ins and progress updates. Sessions for teens and adults can be conducted virtually; however, I prefer in-person sessions for younger children to foster connection and engagement.

I work collaboratively with each client to identify clear goals and regularly review progress. I believe that the strength of the therapeutic relationship is central to meaningful change. At the end of every session, my goal is for clients to leave feeling heard, understood, and equipped with new insights and practical coping tools.
