With over 19 years as a counselor, I can assist you by providing support, encouragement and the skills children, families, and couples need to cope with stress and enjoy a more balanced, satisfying life. Sometimes all you need is someone to help you process the struggles and concerns that are going on within your on mind or with someone else.
I use a number of different therapeutic approaches in my practice. When using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) we’ll work on identifying patterns and learning more about how they might negatively affect you. I also use Humanistic Therapy to help you better understand what you’re experiencing, offering guidance and support without interpreting your feelings for you, as you are the bet person to understand your experience and needs.
My role is to create a safe environment where you can feel secure and supported. My style is warm, respectful and interactive, and I value a strong therapeutic alliance as a basis for personal/behavior change and emotional growth. At times I may be direct when I feel a push is needed to assist you in reaching your ideal self.
