My treatment approach is best described as strength-based. I believe that we come to even our most challenging moments, with the best of intentions. When a client chooses me as their therapist, they provide themselves with a dedicated, judgment-free professional who believes in their ability to guide their own journey. If you are at your most vulnerable or in the darkest of places, there is always hope. Both short-term and long-term therapy is available.
I've worked with children and their families for more than 20 years. I have counseled students with special needs in both public and non-public school . My treatment specialties include individuals with eating disorders and those experiencing grief and loss.
When we work together on your goals or on which ever area of your life you would like to strengthen, your expertise will be respected and valued. After all. though I'm an expert in psychotherapy, you're the expert on you.
