I am CBT trained clinician, but I use a few approaches and treatment modalities to achieve the optimal quality of services for my clients to include Motivational Interviewing, DBT, Acceptance Commitment Therapy and Mindfulness. I believe in recovery and know that therapy requires work. I will assign homework to my clients to cement the work we do together and to maintain active participation as therapy is a process. My therapeutic style is warm, interactive, and tailored to each client's need. I offer non-judgmental, person centered care. My client's goals for therapy is what is first and foremost. Therapy is a collaborative experience. I believe recovery is possible for everyone, but it is work. Partner with me and let me help you reach your optimal level of emotional and psychological performance.
