Hi, thanks for checking out my profile. Please email me as this allows me to respond more quickly to your questions. I absolutely enjoy providing thoughtful caring therapy focused on your needs. I specialize in individualized care for adults. I can help you change your thought patterns and behaviors to have an increased sense of inner calm and improved well-being. I have decades of experience with children however as I’ve aged, found I’ve had to set limits on my availability for child-focused work.
I can help with challenges related to trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, issues of attachment and relationship difficulties. Interventions I use include but are not limited to: EMDR, trauma focused, cognitive-behavioral, DBT, mindfulness, meditation and solution focused approaches.
I’m caring and compassionate in my work as a therapist. I realize it can be difficult to trust so I do my best to make you comfortable with sharing challenges affecting your life. I’d like to help you discover your strengths and qualities and then help you decide what you’d like to work on and how best to help you make that happen.
