Tired of doing the same thing and expecting different results? Tired of feeling like you're going in circles? I work with clients to change their lives by identifying unhealthy patterns and creating new healthy ways of living. If you're willing to do the work, I will walk alongside you to make a real change. Therapy is a cooperative venture with responsibility resting on both the therapist and the client. The therapy approach that I utilize includes the whole person: body, mind, and spirit. The goal of therapy is to bring renewal and enhance the quality of life. In general, the beginning stage of therapy involves identifying the issues by which you are troubled. The second stage involves gaining insights into patterns of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors related to your problems that will help you begin to make needed changes. In the last stage, you will be encouraged to actively apply and solidify new insights and skills to facilitate change in yourself and your life situations. The duration of therapy depends on many factors unique to your situation. Experience shows that those who are motivated to work on their problems, engage in sessions, and complete homework assignments, see the greatest improvement most quickly.

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

The most important factor in successful therapy treatment is the development of a therapeutic alliance. This is a primary focus for me. Before we start learning new skills, my goal is for you to walk away from sessions feeling heard and understood.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

Using Cognitive Behavior Therapy, you'll learn the skills to think differently and manage your emotions and change your behavior. No more racing thoughts, no more overwhelming emotions, no more problem behaviors.

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

With years of experience in family therapy, I not only help clients make changes in their own lives, but my clients experience changes in their relationships.
