As an experienced psychologist, I have worked with with clients having concerns ranging from difficulties in daily living to more serious mental health problems such as anxiety, mood disorders and depression. I also have broad experience with substance abuse and PTSD. I see individuals, couples and families and have worked extensively with military veterans. Goals of treatment include developing more effective coping strategies, relief of guilt and fear, self-acceptance, identifying personal resources, and restoring connections to others.
I believe that people dealing with emotional pain, conflict and stress benefit from having a safe place to express their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement. It is the therapist's job to facilitate and maintain a client relationship that fosters insight, healing and growth through a process of active listening and emotional support.
