"Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try..." If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, or having difficulties in your interpersonal relationships I offer more than 30 years of clinical experience and a creative therapeutic approach. My goal is to treat each individual based on the whole person, rather than simply a diagnosis or label. I employ a holistic and less threatening approach to working through challenges. You will have the opportunity to focus on areas of strength to foster growth, gain personal empowerment, and create life shifts.
I utilize traditional talk therapy and may integrate art therapy, relaxation, and mindfulness techniques. Creative processes involved in self-expression can offer a broad spectrum of resources with which to resolve conflicts and problems, develop interpersonal skills, manage behavior, reduce stress, increase self-esteem, self-awareness, and achieve insight.
I believe that a successful therapeutic relationship is founded on a good match between therapist and client. I am honest and authentic and work to develop a trusting, caring and non-judgmental relationship in which exploration can take place. I look forward to joining you on your journey!
