Life can bring unforeseen experiences and challenges that we may not always be able to handle, either physically or emotionally. You do not have to tackle these challenges alone. My therapeutic approach combines cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and systems-oriented therapy. As a clinician, I focused on enriching my skills by developing an outcome-driven practices to assist my clients with their desired goals.
My approach
My therapeutic approach combines cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and systems-oriented therapy. I will listen with compassion and no judgment about whatever is shared in treatment.
My focus
I have over 20 years of experience in working with individuals who are dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, family and relationship issues, career changes/stress, and other life experiences. I have a passion for helping others identify ways in which they can make changes in their life to live more congruently with their values.
My communication style
I work collaboratively with clients to build upon their strengths and cater treatment objectives to enhance those strengths. I will assist in building tools and strategies to help you move forward in life independently, all while offering empathic support and assisting you in identifying the source of these issues.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have enjoyed working with others and have found that I do my best work when working one-on-one or in small groups. I have also found most people are either misunderstood or need someone to listen actively without criticism or judgment, and I have found this to be a strength of mine. Being a mental health therapist is a good fit for these skills.
My goals for you
I work collaboratively with client to build upon their strengths and cater treatment objectives to enhance those strengths. I will assist in building tools and strategies to help you move forward in life independently, all while offering empathic support and assisting you in identifying the source of these issues.
My first session with you
I like to engage my client in an open dialogue while sprinkling in some pertinent questions along the way. I often like to see and hear where discussions lead but also offer guidance and structure to those who may be unfamiliar with the process of therapy.
