I'm a therapist that specializes in helping people resolve relationship issues, depression and anxiety. I offer tools to help people develop coping skills to handle difficult situations and navigate through stressful life changes. I teach techniques to assist in effective communication, boundary setting, stress management and conflict resolution. I help clients to manage difficult emotions, overcome negative thinking, feel more confident, and create loving relationships. I work with adults, couples, adolescents, and families. I will return emails within 24 hours in regards to openings. Please provide your email address information.
I have trained in psychotherapy, Gestalt therapy, and have experience using many techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, reality therapy, meditation/mindfulness to name a few.
