My name is Penny, and I have been in practice for 14+ years. I am here to help you grow and heal. I enjoy meeting a client where they are, and I take a client centered approach to treatment. My approach is rooted in respect, empathy and confidentiality. I value the courage it takes to be vulnerable and ensure clients are comfortable sharing their unique experiences.
In your first session, you can expect a safe and non judgmental place to express your treatment needs. We will discuss the reason you are seeking treatment and develop treatment goals in order to assist you to be successful in your life.
My strength as a provider is ensuring my clients are comfortable sharing and assisting them to uncover insights into their thoughts, feelings, and needs. By doing this, I help clients improve overall functioning within their lives.
I enjoy working with a variety of populations. I have an extensive history in working with children and families. I love working with people who are in transitions in their lives.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have utilized CBT when working with clients, assisting them to gain insight into distorted ways of thinking, helping them gain coping skills to better manage emotions and behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I currently run a DBT group in a children's clinic that helps high risk clients improve their abilities to manage intense emotions, thus reducing high risk behaviors and suicidal ideation. I use DBT with a variety of clients and find the skills to be helpful.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I have found mindfulness based therapy effective when treating depression. Combining mindfulness and CBT helps clients to gain coping skills and increase present moment awareness.
Trauma Informed Care
I have found that understanding a clients experiences with trauma helps to understand how they interact and function in the world.

It's nice and she keeps me on point. She listening and ask questions to understand more about myself and the environment around me. Respectful, polite, and enjoyable.

I've worked with Penny for almost two months - and she has already helped me incredibly. If you like a style of authentic, direct communication with warm solutions and empowerment, you need to give Penny a chance. There's a sense of comfort in our sessions she brings, and I could see how she could help all personalities. You won't regret it. We've tackled themes regarding boundaries, uplifting self-talk, family dynamics, and self-value.

Penny was recommended by a very caring office worker Monica. I felt that due to her kindness , Penny would be someone I should and would seek out. She was everything I was hoping for, and after our visit, I knew I was right where I need to be. I’m excited to begin therapy and I’m hopeful this journey will prove much needed relief and healing for me.
