Are you struggling with emotional conflicts, relationships problems , grief or anger ? Trying to understand how you got where you are and how to get where you want to be. With over 20 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I can assist you with finding answers. I provide individual counseling in a nurturing, relaxing environment; where you can explore and find solutions that work best for you. You will gain a deeper understanding of yourself, others and learn ways reach your goals. Most all problems can be resolved with a firm commitment to change, clear communication, and a changed perception.
I have been a licensed professional counselor since 2003. I use a collaborative approach, when working with clients. Together, we focus on what changes they would like to see in their lives and then we develop a plan together. This may include talk therapy, art therapy, meditation and some homework to learn new skills.
I utilize different therapeutic techniques depending on what the individual needs are. I may incorporate techniques such as EMDR, Meditation, relaxation exercises, art therapy and talk therapy as a way to process emotional issues.
