Are you experiencing anxiety, grief, sadness, anger, trauma, or stress from daily life? My goal is to help you explore your core strengths to improve your emotions, build better relationships, or strengthen perceived weaknesses. As a therapist I've provided treatment services in a variety of settings residential, behavioral/mental health, elementary/ high schools grades K-12th, and private practice. In each settings I've found the most common reason for a client not seeking help earlier, fear of being judged. I'm here to actively listen, offer coping skills and techniques to help you better understand problems and solve them.
My specialties are Narrative, Reality, and Solution Focus Therapy’s. They are evidence based practices which helps you search for exceptions to the problem and create solutions that can enhance your life. I apply different modalities to assist my client gain clarity into their emotional and physical reactions to events and manage distressful feelings.
It can be difficult to share your innermost thoughts and feelings but I am here to help. I actively try to build a positive relationship with my client so they will feel comfortable interacting with me. My hours of operation are Sunday's 9am-5pm, Monday's 9am-7pm, Tuesday's 9am-7pm, and Wednesday's 8am-5pm.
