Contemplating therapy can provoke feelings of nervousness and doubt due to thoughts like "Will it really help?" or excuses like "I don't have the time". My answer: why not see for yourself? Isn't it worth a try? I am here to listen to you. Having worked with families, children, adolescents, and adults for over 10 years as a therapist and school social worker, I know how to create a safe and empowering environment to process feelings and build insight, problem solving, and coping skills.
I provide therapy for issues related to, but not limited to: grief, anxiety, depression, behavioral problems, parenting, sexuality, adjustment/life transitions, family/spousal conflict. I have received training in Parent in Control®, Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma, A.C.E.S. (Adverse Childhood Experiences Study), crisis intervention, and play therapy.
I use a client-centered approach so we may create feasible goals together, ones you will stay motivated to fulfill. Pulling from a variety of different treatment modalities I can help you improve your emotional, social, physical, and behavioral well being.
