I invite you to take a journey on a "therapeutic pathway" to promote personal health and wellness. Feelings of being overwhelmed, anxious and depressed often present with the many obstacles one faces in every day life. Taking care of one's self both physically and emotionally is essential for healing. I can guide you in a nurturing, empathetic environment by giving you coping skills to reduce negative feelings and provide insight into the challenges you are experiencing. I will help you focus on living a life that is less reactive and more directed.
I believe in the power of a strong therapeutic relationship with the key to therapy being the ability of the therapist to listen and the client knowing that he/she has been heard and understood.
My therapeutic style is eclectic and strength based. Practicing for over 15 years in hospital/ outpatient facilities, treating anxiety, depression, co-occurring and addiction and those impacted as a result of substance use. I am trained in psychological trauma and crisis intervention.
