The stresses of life occasionally take such a toll on us that we need an experienced professional. I have 30 years as a mental health therapist and specialize in trauma, loss, addiction, depression, anxiety and medical trauma. I also work with individuals suffering from the physical issues that often accompany a series of stressful events. I see adults, couples, and adolescents. I find a unique blend of cognitive/behavioral, psychodynamic, mindfulness, film and bibliotherapy and expressive techniques for each client. I also provide clients with community supports and resources to supplement our work together when appropriate.
I have a Certificate of Trauma Treatment from the University of Maryland School of Social Work. I am qualified to identify and treat complex trauma and loss issues. I help clients focus on their strengths to address mood, disorders, isolation, addiction, dissociation, pain, family issues and post-traumatic symptoms such as anxiety and panic attacks.
In addition to experience in problems with overeating and trauma, therapeutic journaling is a tool I have practiced for years and use often to access feeling that might not be revealed in a talking session. This can range from topical writing prompts to free-form writing to poetry to short stories. I also have training using drawing, painting and collage.
