Therapy was never my goal. Over the years I learned that I love helping people and have experienced a lot of challenges, losses, job changes, etc. I have a lot of experience overcoming and moving forward. If you are ready to make changes and reach your full potential, I would love to help you do that. Let's get started on your new path to health and wellbeing.
The initial session gives us a chance to get to know more about each other. Clients share some of their background, what brings them to therapy, and what they hope to achieve. Together we determine how to help you reach your goals and how often we will meet to achieve the best outcomes.
Reality therapy and choice theory have worked well for me. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy as well as some behavior therapy, especially with children and adolescents. But my priority is to meet clients where they are and not every approach is right for everyone. What you respond to best as a client is what I prefer to use.
Life experience gives us all a lot to draw from including both successes and failures. I have experienced a lot of life events and setbacks and what I have learned about managing them and helping others through similar events will provide clients with real-life experiences that have worked and some that have not. Grief and loss, job changes, unexpected moves, relationship conflicts, and family members with health, mental health and substance use issues have helped me to gain an understanding of what you are going through. I look forward to helping you through whatever comes your way.
Anyone dealing with major life events, depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, aging parents, grief and loss, chronic health issues.
