You are the expert of your life! Utilizing an "eclectic" approach, I will draw from an array of psychological orientations to help you recognize and move past obstacles standing between you and your contentment; which will enable you to experience more fulfilling relationships. I'm a "compassionate soul" with great listening skills, although my style is "active" and I frequently utilize Cognitive Behavioral tools and techniques to help you challenge your thinking, reduce your anxiety, and to encourage you to take advantage of the full spectrum of thinking and being.
Focus and collaboration are the key. I will help you identify and prioritize your therapeutic goals, then collaborate on ways you can move towards achieving those goals. Clients have shared that they appreciate that I'm able to keep them on track.
