Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a classic talk therapy technique that helps increase awareness of negative thinking in order to better handle challenging situations. In addition to helping those with mental health disorders (such as anxiety or depression), CBT is also helpful for anyone who is looking to learn how to manage stressful situations. Therapists that use CBT often have a structured program, which involves a set number of sessions. CBT is frequently paired with other treatments, such as medication, when necessary. Think this approach may be right for you? Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s CBT experts today.
My clients often come to me feeling burned out and overwhelmed, trying to cope with relationship issues and past trauma such as abuse, and dealing with anxiety, self-esteem and confidence issues. They are exhausted and feeling like they can't find a way out of the constant spiral. The holistic, client centered techniques I use help guide my clients to reduce stress and help them to finally heal from those past hurts, so they can finally have peace, joy, and harmony in their life.

Are you wondering why your relationships are struggling? Are you in an interracial relationship and finding bridging cultural gaps challenging? Is trauma impacting your connections with yourself and others? We are wired to connect - we thrive on our connections with our spouses, children, friends and coworkers. The quality of these relationships makes a huge impact on our overall well being. Let me help you find the best version of yourself in relationships.

Did you grow up in a controlling, high-demand religious environment? The adverse experiences in this type of setting can lead to feeling like you don't know who you are or what you believe. You may feel torn apart, like there are multiple versions of you in different settings. This can affect the way you treat romantic partners, coworkers, and authority figures. You may also feel conflicted about your identity, your sexuality, and even your body.

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.
Online Therapy
My clients come from all walks of life. Most often I work with trans folks, other people in the LGBTQ community, and those who are part of the kink, poly, non-monogamous, or other sex positive communities. It is important to me to provide a space where someone doesn't need to explain their life or face judgement to improve their access to needed care.

Most of us struggle to see outside the box of our immediate struggles, which causes self-doubt and hopelessness. We often need an objective guide to hold a mirror up to our problem and see it from a different perspective. My clients usually struggle with anxiety and/or depression due to relationships, difficult adjustments, trauma, shame, or stigma. Through counseling, my clients increase their self-worth and discover the courage to take control of their lives.

Many of my clients tend to be queer, young adults who have experienced childhood trauma and are prepared to begin the healing journey, or perhaps pickup where they may have previously left off. I also work with queer folks who have had negative, abusive, or toxic experiences within church/religion because of their gender or sexuality. This is certainly not an exclusive list but meant to provide insight into where my passion and expertise lie.

I work with clients who are tired of knowing how to help other people, but feel absolutely powerless when it comes to helping themselves. They give out advice that changes other peoples lives and then do the exact opposite of what they tell others to do. They are well aware that they need to "just do it", but they just don't know how to do it themselves. My clients are extremely critical of themselves, afraid of making mistakes, and feel like gigantic frauds that are about to be found out.
Online Therapy
My clients explore many facets of their lives with me, including their feelings of anxiety and depression. I also walk alongside people who are navigating their racial identity.
