Are you ready to explore why you and/or your children / spouse / partner and family have been struggling to deal with life’s normal activities as well as new challenges and stressors? Do you struggle to fall asleep or wake-up each morning feeling anxious and overwhelmed? You have found a safe, friendly, and nonjudgmental environment where together we can start a journey together to identify the challenges and then develop goals that you want to achieve in order to decrease negative stressors in your life. A variety of therapeutic tools and resources will be used to help you achieve your goals and truly live the life of your dreams.
I specialize in working with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families as they navigate daily life and additional stressors related to issues such as birth history, developmental / learning disabilities, behavioral problems, ADHD, community/school conflicts, family relationship issues, parenting, addictions, eating disorders, and trauma history.
Call me so you can begin to create a life you love living. Let's achieve your goals through the use of an Eclectic Toolbox of Therapeutic Approaches while including Skills and Treatment Modalities.
