Counseling for me is about companionship! Companions are with you through the good and the not-so-good. The most important thing in counseling is creating a relationship where people can feel and think how they want to about their experience within the relationship because whether we are stepping in the right or wrong direction we are ever growing and changing. Everyone perceives life through a different lens. Biological, physiological, and environmental variables influence those perspectives in different domains of people’s lives. All ages with: Anxiety, Depression, Addictions, Schizo and Mood Spectrum, Paraphallic, and Trauma.

I utilize a variety of integrated theories and techniques to address even the most uniquely multifaceted persons, situations, and/or issues. Theories and techniques such as Play therapy techniques, MI techniques, Person center theory, Psychoanalytic techniques, CBT, REBT, DBT techniques, Reality/Choice theory, Narrative therapy techniques, and (PAC) theory.

First session is about getting to know each other. Seeing if we are a good fit and whether or not counseling is the right choice for you. Change will happen in time, not a complete 180 after first session.
