I am committed to supporting you throughout your healing journey by providing a safe place that is non-judgmental, encouraging, and supportive as you navigate through the difficult moments of your life. Striving to help you gain insight about the problems hindering you from living your best life possible, address unhelpful beliefs, thoughts, and patterns of behavior, and implement new ways of coping through life’s issues. With compassion and understanding, we collaborate to determine the most effective approach to treatment. In your relationship has there felt like there is a strain? Have you been experiencing feelings of resentment, infidelity, intimacy issues, lack of trust, and/or miscommunication? Couples therapy is about helping you to learn and practice the tools that help you achieve a better relationship and remove the idea that being in conflict is bad. If you're feeling sad or depressed, more irritable or angry with those around you, have difficulty bonding with your baby, anxious or panicky, problems with eating or sleeping, having upsetting thoughts that you can’t get out of your mind? There is no reason to continue to suffer alone or in silence. We can help walk beside you towards your healing journey.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, communicate about the paperwork completed, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing by completing an intake assessment. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I use various treatment modalities: Solution Focused Brief Therapy Motivational Interviewing Compassion Focused Therapy Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Gottman Method Prepare/Enrich Positive Parenting Program Mindfulness
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Parenting doesn't come with a handbook. Do you find it difficult to find the joy in being a parent? I strive to help navigate through the difficulty, find solutions, and help bring some of the joy back into parenthood. Life can be difficult and throw various curve balls. With all that you have on your plate, it can become very draining and difficult to deal with one more thing. I seek to help you navigate through the difficulties and find solutions to help you continue to move forward. If you are looking to start your marriage out on the right foot by getting pre-marital counseling, I help you work out the kinks by exploring communication, conflict resolution, stress management and more.
