"Trust The Process" is my professional mantra in which I help people through the therapeutic healing process in an expressive and non-intrusive style. I been in the behavioral health field for 27 years and I am still highly energized, empathetic and compassionate about my profession and the people I serve. Using traditional talk therapy as well as DBT and Expressive therapy modalities I focus on mindfulness, wellness and strength-based practices to empower people to be active and motivated for change, acceptance and letting go of the past which is holding back the healing today.
Expressive Therapy is a specialization tool that I utilize in therapy sessions by introducing art, creative writing, music, movement, drama and play to help individuals express themselves more effectively and without judgment. Creative expression is a good physical and emotional outlet.
I am an avid supporter of Pet Therapy and have a Labradoodle named Stella who at times attends therapy sessions. She has a gentle demeanor at age 6 she is playful yet intuitively supportive to a client's needs in session.
