I am an eternal optimist, and believe strongly in using therapy to train clients to empower themselves. I use EMDR processing for anxiety and trauma processing, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) skills for depression management. I believe strongly in helping people develop self-care regimens to prioritize themselves. My focus often includes working to assist people in finding a balance between home, work, family, school, socialization, and physical health. Goal setting is an important component of therapy, so we work together to establish treatment goals that are reasonable and attainable.
My trainings in EMDR, CBT, and DBT, and more than forty years in practice, have given me the understanding, along with the clinical skills, to sit with people during their darkest times and help them find comfort and healing. My goal is not to merely help you ease your symptoms of depression, anxiety, or trauma; my goal is to empower you to heal yourself.
Would you like to break through where you are right now and into an internal world where you have the ability and skills to enjoy your life? I regularly engage with my clients in creating balance between sessions that will follow the client's direction, and those that will need some therapist "push" to confront painful emotions or controversial issues.
