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 many methods that allow me to bring a variety of skills and knowledge to persons I work with. 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 with a greater sense of empowerment.
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.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I have worked with persons struggling with multiple barriers, mental health, physical health and with addiction for many years in the community and private practice. I take a very insight oriented approach, at your pace, to bring you into the position of being the one who is the best informed about your health and wellbeing. I also work to bring you the tools, strategies and information needed to work on your goals and overall health and wellbeing.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT provides a good way for many to see and gain control over how thoughts might be impacting our behaviors and decisions in life and how to modify them.
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. I want to ensure what we do together takes into account you, your strengths, your input, feedback and what it is that motivates change. This keeps us both focused on your goals and vision.
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. And, it helps to understand why we might surround ourselves with the people we do and / or why they seem to find us as well. Many times this is positive, but not always.
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. DBT also looks at grounding ourselves, interpersonal relationship skills and creating calm out of chaos.
