Emotions all over the place with yourself, family or your children? I work with all ages to help my clients as individuals to better understand themselves and build skills to improve functioning in their environment more constructively. I work within their reality to use real life examples that make sense to them and therefore applicable to their lives. Role-play, reenactments, visual aids, art, play therapy constructs, puppets, etc. are examples utilized with younger ages. Different modalities of talk therapy which allow the client to set specific goals of treatment at a pace that feels comfortable are utilized with adults.
My seventeen years of providing counseling in different settings (my private practice, police departments, crisis shelters, elementary schools, group homes and psychiatric hospitals) have provided clinical experience but more importantly taught me the simple truth that everyone has a unique way of connecting and a need to be heard.
I feel I can be truly present with each of my clients and make them feel heard and understood. I hope they leave the session feeling better, as if they have someone in their corner cheering them on throughout their day to be at their healthiest and most authentic.
