Counseling therapy allows individuals/couples/families a safe and supportive environment to re-evaluate the possible impact past experiences have had on their lives, exploration of their present awareness, and reinvention of future potential. The therapeutic forum is designed to allow individuals their freedom of expression, beliefs and goals while being encouraged to reach for core issues that encourage growth, change and healing of the mind, body and soul.
Experience includes; outpatient, dual-diagnosis setting addressing both mental health and addiction issues, adolescents with emotional disabilities in a day treatment setting, case management working with the severe and persistent mentally ill adult population, trauma and EMDR certification applied to a myriad of mood, thought and behavioral conditions.
