Great to meet you!

I have years of experience. I worked in the Correctional System for 6 years with people who had psychiatric and other problems. I have worked in Foster Care, Clinics where I saw clients with various issues anxiety depression, etc. I have done a lot of Crisis Intervention Work. In Addition, I have worked in the Emergency Room and a Psychiatric Hospital. I have done individual , couples and group therapy for years.

My approach to therapy

First, I do an Intake on my client, then we discuss their reasons for coming to therapy and create a treatment plan. I use a lot of Narrative Therapy and Advanced CBT. In addition, Mindfulness. I am a Certified Team 2 CBT Therapist

What you can expect from me

A feeling that I understand them and that while working together their sense of mental well being will be restored.
