Feeling stuck? We all face challenges, but there’s no reason you should struggle alone when help is available. You deserve to feel better and work through the obstacles that keep you from living your best life. As a clinician in the mental health and substance abuse field for almost 20 years, it's been my privilege to support many courageous individuals in their quest for healing. No two journeys have been the same. I have learned to be present and trust the process. There are many methods, strategies and skills that we can employ to help you resolve current issues and create new possibilities. You just need to begin.
Within the therapeutic relationship, you will have an opportunity to connect with yourself on a deeper level, tap into your inner wisdom and take action towards change. New ways of thinking and doing lead to new outcomes. I view therapy as a creative encounter and offer expressive arts therapy opportunities in addition to traditional approaches.
I utilize methods that are accessible so that everyone can experience the healing power of the creative process. Whether you’re new to therapy or searching for a new approach, I look forward to meeting with you to explore how I might serve you in your recovery. Give me a call to get started on this daring voyage of self discovery and personal growth.
