About me

Thanks for taking the time to visit my listing. If you've come this far, you're on the brink of an important decision--and what a difference the right choice can make. As a Social Worker, I've made a difference in people's lives for nearly 15 years -- helping children, adolescents, adults, and families to overcome life/situational problems and gain emotional freedom. Everyone wants quick relief; therapy is a process, which requires some hard work from the individuals who are participating in therapy. My goal is to foster an interactive therapeutic experience, providing support and practical feedback to effectively address personal life challenges. I offer a personalized approach tailored to your needs. With compassion and understanding, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns and negative perceptions that are holding you back while we build on your strengths to help you attain the personal growth you are committed to accomplishing. As such this will begin the process of healing, growth, and self-empowerment. Our sessions will have a single focus -- helping you to rise above your current obstacles . . . whether that means conquering emotional issues, overcoming blocking beliefs, or repairing important relationships in your life.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is based on the premise that our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are interconnected. The way we think influences how we feel and act, and in turn, how we act can reinforce or change our thought patterns. CBT focuses on identifying and changing negative or distorted thinking, which in turn leads to changes in behavior and emotional responses.

Burton is good, she inquires about things that you may not have thought of. Direct, challenging and solution oriented; which I love. Therapy is a lot mentally but so is carrying everything for so long. I look forward to continuing my healing journey with her.
