Congratulations on taking the first step on your journey towards becoming a better you. Acknowledging the need to change is easy but following through is difficult. Finding the right person to help you through your journey can be draining but important in successfully accomplishing your goals. Allowing yourself to be vulnerable to another person is scary, but it is a strength that aids in the healing process. Humanistic and cognitive behavioral theories are used in an integrative approach to help understand your unique life experiences and how they have led to deficit-based feelings, emotions, and behaviors.
My specialties include treatment of problems related to foster care, adoption, and family and other interpersonal relationships, issues with attachment, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I have extensive experience working with individuals and families experiencing issues related to acute and chronic life stressors.
Fostering Resilience, Empowerment, Success and Hope (FRESH) was created to with the belief that everyone has the Resilience to persevere; the ability to Empower themselves and others; the strength to Succeed; and Hope that positive change is sustainable. Helping you develop and foster these characteristics and qualities is what therapy with me is all about.
