My varied work history has afforded me the opportunity to work with individuals and families facing a wide range of life challenges. I have the most experience in working with those suffering from anxiety and/or depressive disorders, coping with grief/loss, experiencing family conflict or interpersonal difficulties, or dealing with the lasting impact of traumatic experience. I primarily work with individuals but understand the role and importance of family and therefore include family members as necessary. I view my role as helping the individual to define existing problems, identify realistic goals, and actualize those goals.
I approach counseling from a cognitive behavioral perspective and am trained to use this approach to treat trauma. I also draw from solution-focused, strengths-based, and creative approaches to join with and support clients in their self-exploration and growth. The counseling relationship is a key factor in success; I take care to create and attend to it.
It takes strength and courage to seek a more fulfilling, happier life as well as to take the first step toward change. If you are ready to take that step then I am available to support and empower you through the process, and I welcome the opportunity to work with you.
