About
My goal with counseling in to take people from surviving to thriving. I work with children, teens and adults in all of life's stages. Whether you are considering counseling for yourself, child or teen it is my motivation to facilitate a therapeutic relationship in which hope, joy, emotional healing and positive change can be implemented in the lives whom I work with.
I frequently utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with my clients. The modality offers practical tools for understanding that there are cognitive distortions, or ways of seeing yourself and the world around you inaccurately. As the person recognizes these cognitive distortions for what they are, they gain insight about what needs to change.
Choosing to go to therapy is a brave step. Even if you know that it is necessary, it can still be scary because of the unknown that it is. I respect the fact that you are seeking help for yourself or your family. Therapy is about what you wish to accomplish to bring you to the better place in your life. I want to partner with you in this journey.
