I have been supporting health and wellness in all its forms one day, one moment, one interaction at a time for many years. To that end I have studied several treatment methods that allow me to bring a variety of skills to persons so they may live their best life with increased health and wellness. And I promote others feeling empowered to use not only what occurs in therapy, but their skills, talents, knowledge, etc., to move forward in every session.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our initial session I will work to understand your issues, needs and where you would like to go with the support of a therapist. I use this time well to not only understand you and your needs, but to develop a sense of hope and purpose for our work together. I also like to get a feel for how you like to learn, what approaches may work best for you.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My biggest strength comes from the knowledge we are all more alike than different. We all want to live the best version of our lives. We want good relationships, to be cared for, valued, respected and to reach our goals in life. To this end I 100% know and understand I am a help along the way, or along this path, however, you made it this far and have much to offer this process and I will seek that and value that along the way.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT provides a good way for many to see and gain control over how their thoughts might be impacting their behaviors and decisions in life.

Mind-body approach

For most of us the way we manage our physical health can impact our mental health and over all wellbeing. This includes rest, self-care, mindfulness and understanding the mind-body connection more fully.

Motivational Interviewing

I have studied this extensively as it makes sure any approach remains client centered.

Attachment-based

For many our primary attachment figures can remain a part of what drives us to make the decisions we do. Sometimes it's worth slowing down and listening to the tapes we play and automatic processes that drive us to gain mastery over them.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I have studied DBT and use many of the tools to assist with the process of gaining mastery and control over how our emotions can drive our behaviors. Remember, emotions themselves are neither positive or negative.
