Why Choose Blueprint Therapy Services?
Blueprint Therapy Services specializes in equipping Adolescents and Young Adults (Ages 13-30) with the skills to master their emotions, find clarity, and build an independent, fulfilling life. With over 10 years of experience, I utilize proven, research-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and EMDR Therapy to help young people gain control over intense thoughts, process difficult experiences, and navigate their future with confidence.
Mastering Intense Emotions and Behavior
I help young people and their families stop the cycle of impulsive actions, volatile mood swings, and unhealthy coping behaviors. We work together to explore underlying causes and build a powerful toolbox of emotional regulation strategies, so they can feel in control and respond to life's challenges instead of reacting to them.
Breaking the Cycle of Substance Use & Self-Medication
My extensive background in inpatient and outpatient substance abuse treatment means I can quickly assess the level of support needed—from basic recovery strategies to navigating early sobriety. This specialization allows me to help young adults move beyond the need to self-medicate anxiety or uncertainty and create a sustainable path toward a healthy, substance-free future.
Resolving Past Experiences that Block the Future
Unresolved trauma or difficult life experiences (e.g., family conflict, relationship stress, bullying) can lead to crippling anxiety and motivation loss. I use specialized methods like EMDR Therapy to release the grip of past pain, reduce overwhelming emotional flashbacks, and clear the mental space needed for them to focus on their goals and direction.
Gaining Control Over Tics & Tic Disorders (CBIT)
I am excited to expand my services to offer Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT), which is recommended by the American Academy of Neurology and the Tourette Association of America (TAA) as a first-line behavioral treatment for managing Tics and Tourette Syndrome. This evidence-based, non-medication approach has been proven effective for children, adolescents, and adults, empowering them to gain control by training them to recognize the urges that precede a tic and develop competing behaviors to significantly reduce tic frequency and severity.
