New to Grow
I am a therapist with 43 year of experience who provides compassionate care tailored to meet client needs. My training has been in psycho-dynamic, CBT, Mindfulness, EMDR, and I am IFS informed. It is my goal to express empathy and compassion as the basis of my work. I am a wife, mother, and grandmother who take pride in being a caring individual.
During the first session I will work on getting an understanding of who you are and your background information. I will discuss what to expect in therapy and provide a safe caring environment.
I am an experienced therapist with 43 years post masters experience. I have worked in worked in a psychiatric hospital, outpatient clinics, and at a hospice. I have experience in many modalities and can tailor my approach as needed.
My ideal client is an adult who is experiencing or has experienced anxiety, depression, or grief issues. They would be motivated to work on and express the desire for help with these issues. Basic needs would be met, so time in therapy could be spent on therapeutic issues.
