During my four decades of clinical practice, I have helped others heal old wounds and successfully navigate the most difficult storms life can conjure up. Regaining your direction, sense of wellbeing and rebuilding your self-esteem, and relationships will be essential goals in our work together. Let's get started.
For the licensed psychotherapist or intern working on hours, board approved supervision is available. This service is also available for Neurofeedback practitioners.
We also provide EEG Neurofeedback. This is a very effective natural, non-drug method to naturally treat, trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and other emotional and behavioral issues, often with a long term benefit. Great for the struggling student!
