Hi I am a licensed mental health counselor and certified addiction professional who has been in the profession for 30 years now. I bring to the table an array of techniques and interests from working with teens and adults over the years.
In our first session together we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you are facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for use to work through in follow-up sessions.
As a therapist my greatest strengths are my ability to be compasionate, empathetic, caring, hard working in nature. I see where the client is at and I meet you there.
I love working with young professionals who are in the first few years of their career to help improve themselves, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often get confused and anxious about their careers. I also work great with teens, younger adults and older adults alike to help enhance their self-esteem and get them back on track.
My treatmemt method is very electic using CBT, DBT, mindfulness, behavioral, and more. I am trained in EMDR which is a trauma based therapy which can assist with all kinds of traumas as well as depression and anxiety.
I am trained in CBT which consists on changing the way you think, feel and behave.
I have worked with many couples to enhance the development of the situation at hand and to bring the couple back together to a loving union.
I have been trained in DBT which used many facets to assist the person with emotional regulation, mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance,
I have been trained in ACT where you learn skills from accepting self and situation, then making a committment, and standing by it. It is a type of mindful psychotherapy that helps you stay focused on the present moment and accept thoughts and feelings without judgement.
