Hello There! I am so glad you are considering choosing BetterHelp to address your concerns. If you choose me as your therapist, I look forward to getting to know you and spending time helping you with your goals. I also want to introduce myself. I am personable, kind, accepting, and funny. I have been helping others since the age of 21. I received my doctorate in psychology in 2002 and have been a licensed psychologist since 2005. My therapy practice has primarily focused on teenagers and adults. I have worked with many issues and find that I am successful doing so with the help of clients. Further, with your permission, I will consult with others if we happen to hit a wall. I love to help others achieve goals and experience satisfaction and happiness with their lives. I typically use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with clients. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, emphasizes how your thoughts influence your feelings and choices. For example, if a client is unsure if they should stay in a relationship, we would explore how his/her thoughts about the relationship influence feelings (sadness, dissatisfaction) and choices (not talking to that person, returning their belongings). I then work with a client on making choices that are based on logic and truly identified desire. CBT is very effective in a fairly short amount of time and the techniques we would use are transferable to any issues you experience in the future. You would be able to utilize them by yourself if you'd like! I enjoy a relationship that is honest and appreciate feedback. The satisfaction that comes with helping others brings wonderful meaning to my life. If you choose to work with me, I believe you will find meaning and help in the experience.
