Being a good listener by engaging with you is paramount to what I see as working with current issues client's face. Understanding that clients search for solutions to their problems, knowing and learning how to help themselves become stronger, whether a survivor of trauma, infidelity, substance abuse or neglect, or anger you may hit a breaking point. Please know that together we can take you to the next level, to what works best for setting goals and interventions best done where change can happen. Don't put off today where you want to be tomorrow-change can make a difference.
I work with children age 7 and adolescents, teens, young adults, Individuals and Couples, Family and Seniors, I am trained in Trauma, PTSD, EMDR, Sexual Abuse, Neglect, , Substance Addictions, Young Adults Relational Issues, Cultural Issues, Sexual Orientation, Grief and Dying, , Divorce & Co-Parenting,Family Conflicts, School, Career and Job Changes.
A quote by (Linehan2015,420) says, "When we finally face reality as it is, we can actually do something about it." I invite you to experience your reality in the current situations you face, as you take steps to learn awareness to what matters; what may be known to yourself, what are unknowns, and what are mysteries. Accepting change is taking action.

What is confusing to clients is not always knowing what is wrong. Knowing what direction to take with no support to help them. In session, a family can begin to heal from hurt or pain, desiring to see themselves and others, family, individuals, couples all engaging together may diminish anxiety as strength is regained. By taking the first step is the hardest but is worthwhile when others hear you
