Therapy can be intimidating as it's one of the more intimate activities you will engage in. Of course, how could it not be; you walk into a room with a stranger, expecting to discuss in detail your inner thoughts, emotions, & current stressors. For therapy to work it's important you feel safe, welcomed & confident in your therapist. I can be that therapist for you. I will provide you & your family a warm, nurturing environment where you can begin to address your needs without fear of judgement or ridicule as we begin your journey toward healing.
Including my work with Adults, I specialize in working with children & teens (emotional, behavioral, social & academic struggles). Using my training, I can help you begin to explore, gain insight, understanding of emotions & needs. I can help you learn healthy communication practices while setting safe boundaries.
Therapeutic modalities I often practice are: client centered, strength based, mindfulness, solution focused & CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). Through giving yourself the gift of therapy, you can begin to embrace acceptance, growth, hope & bring forth healing in your daily living.
