About Me

MY GOAL IS TO EMPOWER YOU TO TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR LIFE.

​

EMPOWERMENT COMES FROM LEARNING LIFE-CHANGING SKILLS THAT CAN BE USED DAILY FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, NO MATTER WHERE LIFE TAKES YOU.
 

IN THERAPY I WORK WITH CLIENTS TO INCREASE THEIR AWARENESS OF THOUGHTS, EMOTIONS, BODY SENSATIONS AND ACTIONS. QUITE OFTEN, WE HUMAN BEINGS CAN GET STUCK IN CERTAIN THOUGHT PATTERNS, AND ARE NOT ABLE TO RECOGNIZE WHEN OUR THINKING CAN ACTUALLY BE HARMFUL.  IN MY WORK, I HELP PEOPLE GAIN ACCESS TO THEIR DEEPLY EMBEDDED BELIEF SYSTEMS, AND TOGETHER WE BEGIN THE WORK OF CREATING HEALTHIER STORIES AND BELIEFS ABOUT OURSELVES AND THE WORLD.  


PEOPLE COME INTO MY THERAPY PRACTICE FOR A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT REASONS, SUCH AS:  ANXIETY, PANIC, OCD, STRESS, DEPRESSION, PTSD/TRAUMA, PARENTING, GRIEF, RELATIONSHIPS COLLEGE TRANSITIONS, LGBT SUPPORT, SELF-INJURIOUS BEHAVIORS, TRICHOTILLOMANIA/SKIN PICKING, COMMUNICATION DIFFICULTIES, SCHOOL PROBLEMS, BODY IMAGE CONCERNS, SELF-ESTEEM, AND LIFE TRANSITIONS.  PEOPLE ALSO COME IN TO INCREASE THEIR SELF-AWARENESS, ACHIEVE MORE SELF-CONFIDENCE, AND IMPROVE THEIR OVERALL LIFE-EXPERIENCE.


EACH PERSON I SEE IS TREATED AS A UNIQUE INDIVIDUAL, AND I WORK WITH CLIENTS COLLABORATIVELY TO FIND SOLUTIONS WHICH BEST MEET THEIR NEEDS AND TREATMENT GOALS.  WE DECIDE TOGETHER THE LENGTH OF TREATMENT, HOW OFTEN WE WILL MEET, AND WHAT WORK YOU MIGHT WANT TO DO ON YOUR OWN OUTSIDE OF THERAPY.  I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO ALSO COLLABORATE WITH OTHER TREATMENT PROFESSIONALS YOU MAY BE SEEING CONCURRENTLY.
