With 20+ years of experience, I can offer you various tools to help you on your journey. I've raised six children and I can offer empathy and understanding of family life very effectively. I strongly believe that assisting someone make choices is the best way to feel better. I have worked with individuals, couples and parents/ families. In a non-judgmental environment, we can explore avenues that you as the client present. I am experienced in EMDR (Eye Movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing) used most effectively with trauma. If you seek a counselor that is direct and real, look no further because I am that person.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we will start with brief introductions then dive into the specific challenges you are facing. We will determine if we have the 'chemistry' to experience successful counseling. These session are for you, the client ,and you will determine how to proceed and what you want to talk about.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I incorporate Choice Theory , Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and an eclectic array of other theories.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My biggest strength lies in my many years of experience dealing with an enormous amount different experiences. I use a number of 'tools' and I think out-of-the-box. I am quirky direct and different. If ordinary is what you seek, I am not that person.
