First session
In our first session together, we will get to know each other a bit and talk about what brought you to therapy. Together we will decide on a game plan to help you reach your goals.
Strengths
I am a compassionate and non-judgmental individual and I bring that to my practice and to every client session. I provide a safe environment to talk about tough and challenging issues.
Ideal clients
I see all adults age 18 and over for a variety of issues. I've worked with a lot of individuals on issues around life transitions, self esteem and healing from past trauma.
Treatment methods
Psychodynamic
Our past frequently guides our thoughts and behaviors in ways we may not realize. I work with clients to explore the past and discover patterns that can be changed to meet the client's goals.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Being present and in tune with yourself and your experiences can be a challenge in a busy world. I work with clients to determine what is important to them and how they can remain fully present and not miss the great things happening around them.
