Hi there, I'm Yvonne. I am an empathetic therapist who has military experience. I devoted over 22 years to empowering and guiding others to be successful in becoming the person they wanted to be while serving their country. Are you struggling to be authentic in your relationships, work and with your self? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to where you want to be in life. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I believe everyone has a treasure within themselves, each person is beautifully unique, like a diamond, and it takes courage to be will to starting digging through the difficulties of life to find our healing and truth. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hurts, habits, and hangups holding you back. Let's work together!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Establishing a working collaborative relationship is important to me because I want my clients to feel accomplished as they work through their difficulties in a safe and trusting environment.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
In sessions I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and EMDR. I recognize each person is unique and will align the therapy to fit the person's needs.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I enjoy working with adolescents and adults with a wide variety of presenting concerns, but trauma and faith based counseling hold a special place in my heart.
