As a Marriage and Family Therapist in both a special education setting, and privately owned practice, I have accumulated over 25 years of understanding. Whether the therapeutic intervention involves an adult, child, adolescent, family, or couple, I believe that every participant should be afforded an opportunity to experience a secure and trusting alliance. This means that each client is unconditionally accepted with the belief that he or she has the capacity to achieve those goals which will contribute to an elevated sense of well being.

Using a resiliency-focused approach, it doesn’t have to be an ordeal to heal. In fact, neuroscience has shown this is not the best way to work on oneself. Rather, focusing on regulating the nervous system using simple wellness skills and education about the brain and body connection can pave the way toward increased daily well-being as well as lay groundwork for resolving trauma. We can't always prevent stressors, and many of us have been through challenges or traumas in childhood that make it difficult to weather life's changes. Together, we will co-create the best course of treatment to help you live more fully in each moment.

In today's world, parents worry about their child's ability to be successful in social situations. With the addition of video gaming and social media platforms, children do not have the same access to in-person social interactions. Due to this current phenomenon, many children lack the necessary skills to be successful when interacting with their peer group. Many children suffer from issues such as social isolation, lack of confidence in their social abilities, and fear of rejection. Social Skills Training Academy's goal is to teach children the necessary skills to feel confident and knowledgeable in their social world.

The clientele who I primarily work with are struggling with anxious and/or depressive symptoms related to life transitions or general mood related disorders. Together, we formulate therapeutic goals with the aim of reducing the symptomatic complaints. Sometimes the process is as simple as reframing perspective and other times, more trauma and attachment work is involved. The path makes itself clear as the therapeutic relationship develops and the client leads the way in terms of readiness and personal needs.
