My approach with clients is warm, compassionate and collaborative. In addition to relieving pain and symptoms, I strive to help clients make changes that bring them happiness and greater satisfaction in life. Areas of expertise include treatment of PTSD, depression, anxiety, trauma, and abuse, along with problems stemming from relationship issues, divorce, parenting issues, empty nest, career change, relocation, major illness, chronic pain, or grief. I use complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a personalized approach for each client, building on strengths to achieve the changes you want.
Trauma and abuse create wounds that take time and great care to repair. These wounds often show up as depression, anxiety, anger, insomnia, mood swings, dissociation and/or hopelessness. Healing begins by creating a safe therapeutic relationship to explore the impact trauma has had on your life, the changes you want to make, and a plan to get you there.
One of the most important goals in therapy is to learn to care for yourself and your important relationships when you are experiencing difficult emotions like sadness, anger, grief, shame, anxiety, and fear. Getting your emotional needs met opens the door to more happiness, stability, and satisfaction in your life.
