Evidence-Based CBT
Structured Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Modesto adults who want skills, not endless venting — grounded in research and my 10+ years of practice.

Modesto is Stanislaus County’s largest city and a frequent search home for adults who want therapy that feels local but flexible. Between Valley heat, family responsibilities, and full calendars, I offer confidential, research-based online CBT sessions without a midday drive. Care stays focused on adults — anxiety, social anxiety, depression, anger, transitions, and relationship patterns — delivered over a secure video platform.
Modesto clients receive the same confidential telehealth CBT as Turlock — practical tools for adults navigating modern Central Valley life.
