About My Clients
Suffering with anxiety? Ruminating on what is to come creates expectations that can cause discomfort and fear regarding the future. By shifting perspectives, together we can reduce or reframe these negative thought processes to create peaceful and proactive behavioral and thought patterns moving forward. Life transitions? If you or someone you love is struggling with a life transition and would like to explore treatment options, please be in touch. You don’t need to struggle alone.
My Background and Approach
Since my completion of graduate studies in Clinical Social Work at the University of NC at Wilmington, I have worked in the field of medical social work, hospice and private practice for over a decade. I have found that grief and loss, anxiety and confidence building are my natural strengths when working with clients. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT is a short-term, problem-focused form of behavioral treatment that helps people see the difference between beliefs, thoughts, and feelings, and free them from unhelpful patterns of behavior. CBT is grounded in the belief that it is a person’s perception of events – rather than the events themselves – that determines how he or she will feel and act in response. With CBT, you’ll be able to adjust the thoughts that directly influence your emotions and behavior. This adjustment process is referred to as cognitive reconstructing, which happens through different CBT techniques.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My Mission: To assist those experiencing uncomfortable life challenges with compassion and understanding while together creating a greater quality of life and healing. My Vision: To assist and enable positive transformation for those that wish for change while practicing compassion and empathy for each individual's experience. I have always had a great passion for assisting others through challenges by creating a non-judgmental and relaxed safe place to process the difficulties that we all face during our lives. Although an online platform is not the traditional treatment environment, I have found that it allows my clients to remain in their homes or private place of their choosing for sessions while also increasing availability to a larger population that may not have been reached otherwise. My practice is completely online for this reason. I look forward to meeting with you and please feel free to reach out with any further questions or inquiries.
