Within each of us lies the answers but so often we don't listen, or can't hear, that voice. Therapy can help to quiet the mind and allow that voice to speak and be heard. When we follow its words we find exactly where we need to be. My goal in therapy is to help clients to find that voice and listen to it because it holds the answers we seek-It holds the map for the journey we are on.

This experience was extremely valuable in sharpening my diagnostic skills and treatment planning abilities with clients.

Life is sometimes a difficult process especially when a partner or child needs, but doesn't want therapy. It can become very painful for yourself or the loved one whose behavior is affecting the whole family. You may even be combing these ads trying to sort out where to start. Sometimes you need someone who knows how to allow a person to open up in their own time. Someone who can work with them through their fears. I have experience in: Child Therapy, Addressing resistance, Mandated clients and LGBTQ concerns. I utilize a variety of techniques toward this aim including EMDR and Play (Sandtray) therapy.
