As the Clinical Director of Seeds2Succeed, I bring over 19 years of experience helping adolescents, adults and families navigate life’s challenges. I am also a Social Work Board-approved clinical supervisor, mentoring and supporting the next generation of mental health professionals.
I specialize in working with adolescents (16+) and adults, addressing a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, frustration tolerance, life transitions, relationship challenges, occupational and educational struggles, and self-esteem.
My therapeutic approach is supportive, strengths-based, and practical. I believe in empowering clients to build on their unique strengths and achieve the growth and resilience they desire. Together, we create a path toward lasting change and personal fulfillment.
ACT is a form of therapy that focuses on helping individuals accept their thoughts and feelings rather than trying to fight or avoid them. It is grounded in mindfulness and behavior change strategies. Ultimately, ACT encourages psychological flexibility, allowing clients to live a meaningful life in accordance with their values despite challenges or distressing experiences.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely used and evidence-based form of psychotherapy that focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It helps individuals identify and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress. This approach is goal-oriented, structured, and typically short-term, making it effective for a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, and stress.
Cognitive Processing Theory (CPT) is a structured, evidence-based form of cognitive therapy specifically designed to help individuals recover from trauma, including PTSD. CPT focuses on identifying and challenging unhelpful beliefs related to the trauma, which often lead to persistent feelings of guilt, shame, or fear. It is particularly effective in helping clients reclaim control over their lives by reframing their trauma narratives and developing healthier ways of thinking and coping.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a comprehensive, evidence-based therapy designed to help individuals manage intense emotions, improve relationships, and develop healthier coping skills. Originally created for treating Borderline Personality Disorder, DBT is also effective for a wide range of mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, and self-harm. Additionally, DBT combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices, teaching clients skills in four key areas: emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness.
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is a highly effective form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) designed specifically for treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and other anxiety-related disorders. ERP helps individuals confront their fears and obsessions in a gradual and controlled manner by exposing them to anxiety-provoking situations or thoughts without engaging in their usual compulsive behaviors or avoidance strategies. Through repeated and guided exposure, clients learn that their feared outcomes are unlikely or manageable, which reduces anxiety and diminishes the need for compulsive responses.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based psychotherapy approach that helps individuals heal from the emotional distress caused by traumatic experiences. It is particularly effective for treating PTSD but can also address other mental health issues. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR focuses less on discussing the trauma in detail and more on the brain’s natural healing process. This approach helps individuals resolve trauma, reduce distress, and regain emotional stability.
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is an evidence-based program that combines mindfulness meditation and yoga to help individuals manage stress, anxiety, and chronic pain. MBSR teaches participants to cultivate present-moment awareness, helping them respond to life’s challenges with greater calm and resilience. Additionally, MSBR is effective for reducing stress and improving overall well-being, making it a valuable tool for managing a variety of mental health and physical conditions.
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a goal-oriented, future-focused approach that emphasizes finding solutions rather than focusing on problems. This therapy helps clients identify their strengths and resources to create positive change in a short period of time. By focusing on what is working and building on past successes, clients can make progress quickly and effectively.
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is an evidence-based approach that helps individuals process and resolve trauma, anxiety, grief, and other distressing experiences—often in fewer sessions than traditional talk therapy. ART uses guided eye movements and imagery rescripting techniques to help the brain reframe painful memories without requiring clients to verbally relive them in detail. The result is rapid relief from emotional distress and a renewed sense of control and calm. ART is effective, non-invasive, and backed by clinical research for trauma and PTSD.
ART can help with:
