Hello! I have been helping clients for over 20 years to learn and practice coping skills that improve the quality of their lives, their relationships, and bring them peace and joy. I am certified in EMDR Therapy and can help clients process and integrate trauma issues. I love seeing the change and progress as we journey together through solving problems and seeing the world through a more positive perspective.
I use many techniques and strategies, but mostly, it is the therapeutic relationship itself that promotes change. I care about my clients, and I truly want to help you. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one of my staple techniques, because nothing has any meaning until you give it meaning with your thoughts. I help you change your thoughts and perspective, and this results in calmer, healthier feelings and actions. I am also certified in EMDR and can help you process and integrate trauma issues.
You will learn/practice coping skills in sessions - learning how to deal with life stressors, depression, anxiety, trauma (I am certified in EMDR), and existential issues. I want you to leave each session feeling hopeful about the future and ready to use what you have learned in real-life situations. I also actively and empathically listen to YOU. I want to know how you feel, what you need, and I am here to validate you and propel you to succeed in every area of your life.
