I have over 20 years of experience in the field of clinical psychology, providing both psychological evaluation and therapy services. My areas of focus include identifying clinical and educational related concerns through evaluation as well as using cognitive behavioral methods to treat a wide range of concerns. My therapy clients often request services for depression, anxiety, school and work related issues, and coping with day to day stress.
I have learned to focus on strengths rather than problems. Although presenting issues significantly impact life satisfaction, identifying and utilizing strengths is crucial for effective interventions. Clients are impressed with my ability to establish rapport and maintain a non-judgmental stance which results in a high level of self-disclosure.
My strength is that I am non-judgmental and work within the value system of my clients. I steer away from imposing my own world view but instead assist with problem solving and self-improvement within the context of client core values. I am an expert re-framer, helping clients explore thoughts underlying behaviors and emotions to motivate change.
