LMFT, 25 years of experience
Hi, I am a licensed marriage and therapist with 25 years of clinical background. I am passionate about helping people and empowering them to live fully and authentically. I help clients identify and overcome the barriers in their personal lives and relationships in order to find happiness. I provide safety, hope, understanding, and a way forward when dealing with clients' challenges and relationships. I advocate a philosophy of acceptance, compassion, empathy, and a respectful, non-judgmental style with all my clients.
The initial session is for clients to get comfortable and ask questions. It also includes the assessment of presenting concerns, and discussing confidentiality.
My strength lies in my ability to develop genuine connections with my clients. My 25 years of experience has afforded me comfort and expertise in treating a wide range of conditions.
I work with clients who suffer from depression, anxiety, addiction, work stress, and family conflict.
My approach is client centered focusing on evidence based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I collaboratively work with my clients to identify and challenge negative thought patterns that are contributing to their difficulties.
I use a holistic approach and look at the whole person rather than just a single area of a person's life. By emphasizing clients' skills and positive characteristics, it encourages them to gain a more empowering perspective to heal and find personal fulfillment.
