I recently renewed my license after retiring in 2021. I began in the mental health field as a social worker and eventually went into practice as a psychotherapist, practicing for a total of 40 years in the mental health field. One of the greatest passions of my work has been to witness my clients growth and empowerment. I wrote my master's paper on eating disorders and worked extensively in both group and individual settings.
I utilize CBT, mindfulness, relaxation, imagery, spirituality and somatics as treatment modalities. I believe that we are self-healing and trust that we are all able to discover our own healing pathways given the support and guidance.
I believe the foundation of a therapeutic relationship is built on trust. From that foundation, clients are supported on their personal healing paths by examining their past choices and exploration and encouragement of developing new and different pathways.
