Live the life you want! In 20+ years of working with clients, I have developed a clinical style based on how I would like to be treated if I were the client; a respectful, relaxed atmosphere providing excellent care - sometimes even fun. I work collaboratively to clarify my client's problems and resources, to address their concerns and help them get to where they want to be in life. I don't label my clients and often see myself as a type of teacher or coach. Additionally I worked for 7 years in a major corporation and understand the real world.
I have broad experience working with anxiety disorders, depression, trauma and related issues. A main practice method is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. It examines our perceptions and behaviors and develops tools for change; other methods are used, an "eclectic" approach. I have specialty training for anxiety disorders & trauma (EMDR Level II).
Experience, training and a relaxed, down-to-earth approach distinguishes my practice. I focus on helping my clients achieve the life that they want and developing the skills to keep it. I understand how hectic our world can be and offer flexibility in scheduling, including evening and weekend appointments.
