Hi there, I'm Loretta!

Life can be challenging causing us to feel stressed, anxious, and/or depressed at times. This may lead to the over use of substances or create strains on our relationships. We can explore solutions together, build coping skills, and learn to set healthy boundaries all within a safe and supportive environment.

My focus

I have over 30 years of experience helping people through great deals of stress, anxiety, and/or depression. This can be due to life transitions, childhood trauma, situational trauma, work stress, relationship strains, and substance use/abuse. I start where you are, move with you at your pace, while providing a few gentle nudges along the way.

My approach

My heart is in the game 100%. Some of the ways we can grow and change are through Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Radical Acceptance, Mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I have a wide variety of skills, exercises, and techniques to draw from. I look forward to sharing them with you.
