The most important consideration in experiencing progress in therapy is your connection with me. As a clinician, I am an understanding, supportive and an empowering therapist, who has the education and years of life experience to help you reach your goals. My therapeutic approach is integrative, meaning I tailor treatment to your unique concerns. This may include aspects from several approaches, all with a focus on emphasizing your strengths.
I work with individuals experiencing stress or depression from navigating through major life changes, whether entering adulthood or retirement. I specialize and hold a certification to support individuals struggling with substance use; to identify the underlying cause of addiction, perhaps emotional trauma, and heal from guilt and shame.
I feel blessed to have the opportunity to help others, and never do I feel that providing therapy is "going to work". My belief is that each of us has unique gifts, and our life journey is to discover them, and live the extraordinary lives we choose.
