At Zambezi, I provide a range of several mental health services from the comfort of home through telehealth. I provide medication management & therapy in a single visit to save you time and money.

I use the gestalt and play therapy with children and teens based on developmental needs. First, I establish a relationship, meet as equals and then then engage the senses through play and creative activities such as story telling. I have used the empty chair analog for clients to verbalize their innermost thoughts. Motivational interviewing is used for motivation to change behavior in clients.
