As an adult or teenager your feelings and experiences are unique. You may need to have someone who can acknowledge what is important to you and to help you find ways to improve the way you feel about yourself, your loved ones, your life and your environment! Because we live in a materialistic society, people often feel isolated or alone, unsupported, conflicted or pressured to change your values. My goal is to help you to discover your needs and to help you achieve a strong sense of self and an ability to utilize the resources and relationships available to you.
I am a supportive psychotherapist providing respect and encouragement to every client. We will work together to identify the issues and obstacles that cause pain, discomfort and anxiety. We will focus on your goals; strenghten your sense of self; and improve your view of your life. You will improve overall functioning and communication.
Relational therapy. Communication skills. Assertiveness. Cognitive behavioral techniques - that help you change negative thinking and behaviors that cause you distress. Post-traumatic stress reduction, solution-focused therapy with a psychodynamic approach. I specialize in women's issues, histories of childhood abuse and trauma.
Cultural diversity and ethnic identity is always considered.
