I am a seasoned LMFT with 25 years experience treating chronic/acute mental health concerns, addiction, trauma, process addictions. I have experience as a senior executive in corporate environments. I have been trained in a variety of modalities over the years, so we can choose the best approach for you. I am a compassionate yet direct person, so that comes through in my work with clients.
In our first session, I will tell you a bit about me and then we will talk about what brought you to therapy at this time. Afterward, if you feel we are a good match, we will craft a plan that works well for you. Some issues do take time to heal, but it is possible to begin experiencing some relief more quickly. It is not necessary to spend years in therapy to improve your quality of life.
I have a gift for honing in on client's main concerns. I have a direct, but compassionate style. I can also find humor in the human condition, so we may share a laugh or two as well. My diverse experience helps me with treatment planning, whether you are experiencing a painful transition or have a more critical situation going on in your life.
