My style of counseling focuses on the strengths of my clients and with a focus on the problems that my clients want to change. The treatment I offer is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have experience with people of all ages and what my clients enjoy the most is that I treat them with patience, compassion, and respect.
Although seeking a counselor can be scary, unpredictable, or may bring insecurity, one of the rewards of receiving therapy is starting down the path of healing from our worries. I invite you to consider the benefit of starting therapy with me to improve your life in the ways that mean the most to you.
When creating a treatment plan with you, your personal goals and needs for therapy will be considered in order to fulfill your wishes to live a fuller and happier life.
