I establish a comfortable environment where individuals/families can express their feelings and thoughts, build needed tools to change attitudes and behaviors and develop coping skills to manage various situations.
My biggest strength is the ability to provide individuals and families with the foundational skills and tools to help provide a better road map to successfully navigating the road to success on this journey through life.
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help the client reset and reframe thoughts
